English translation

1979. It was narrated that 'Ammār said: "The Janazah of a boy and a woman were brought. The boy was placed closer to the people and the woman was placed beyond him, and the funeral prayer was offered for them. Among the people were Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī, Ibn 'Abbās, Abū Qatādah and Abū Hurairah. I asked them about that and they said: "(It is) Sunnah." (Hasan)

Arabic text

1977 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ، عَنْ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: «حَضَرَتْ جَنَازَةُ صَبِيٍّ وَامْرَأَةٍ، فَقُدِّمَ الصَّبِيُّ مِمَّا يَلِي الْقَوْمَ، وَوُضِعَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ وَرَاءَهُ، فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِمَا»، وَفِي الْقَوْمِ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ، وَابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، وَأَبُو قَتَادَةَ، وَأَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَسَأَلْتُهُمْ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالُوا: «السُّنَّةُ»

Commentary

If there is more than one deceased, a single funeral prayer may be offered for all of them, irrespective of whether they be of one gender or more, young or old. Although, the males shall be placed closer to the Imām and the females, shall be placed away from the males. If the general supplication for prayer is invoked, that would suffice all.
