Arabic text

١٠٣٨ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ ‌سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ ، عَنْ ‌قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ ‌سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ «أَنَّ أُمَّ سَعْدٍ» مَاتَتْ وَالنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَائِبٌ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا، وَقَدْ مَضَى لِذَلِكَ شَهْرٌ.

Commentary

If a deceased is buried before the performance of the funeral prayer or if there are some people who missed the funeral prayer, it is allowed to perform the funeral prayer on the grave, but the Imām for the funeral prayer should be a person who has not performed the funeral prayer before for the deceased. This issue is clear and proved from various Ṣaḥīḥ narrations. (See for explanation Aḥkām Al-Janāiz p.112-115.)
