Q 1:
What is the ruling on the Imam (the one who leads congregational Prayer) offering Janazah (Funeral) Prayer over the deceased in a room behind the Masjid (mosque) while Muslims offer it in the Masjid, i.e. before the Imam while being led by him?
A:
It is permissible to offer Janazah Prayer either in or outside the Masjid. However, just as any other Salah (Prayer), those offering it should stand behind the Imam leading them in it. In other words, it is not permissible for them to stand in front of him, as this contradicts the Sunnah (acts, sayings or approvals of the Prophet).May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
