The
congregational supplication at the graveside, whereby one
of supplicates and the rest say "aameen"
*Please appropriately reference
this fatwa to: www.fatwa-online.com, thankyou!*
Question: What is the ruling regarding the
congregational supplication at the graveside, whereby one
of them supplicates and the rest say "aameen"?
Response:
This is not from the Sunnah
of the Messenger (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam), nor the Rightly Guided Khulafaa..
Rather, the Messenger (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) used to guide them to seek forgiveness
for the deceased and ask (Allaah) to make him firm (in answering
the questions of the two angels) for him, and all this by
himself (individually) and not congregationally.
