Imagine if the child of the dead is the imam for solat jenazah. I’m saying this seriously. Were all saw this every time someone is dead. The imam(not the child of the dead) will just say lets solat whn the proper adab is, he needs to say abt the jenazah etc. And he definitely has other jenazah to take care of.
imagine if the son of the dead is leading the solat jenazah, adab before solat is to say about the jenazah. The son will say ‘what are you looking at my father?’ If other people(not family) handle it, he will say, ‘what ate you looking at the dead?’ The dead. Not ‘my father’.
imagine if the son of the dead lead the prayer and make dua after solat, all makmum behind will ‘amin’ for the dua. The son of the dead himself pray for his father, how long do you think the dua would be? With tears flowing etc. Impossible in that kinda state of a child praying for his father to Allah, Allah will reject the dua. Its impossible He rejects it because Allah swt is The Most Loving and The Most Merciful. Impossible.
but let me ask you, how many of our children in the house are capable to do that when we die one day? Or they just wait for you to die because of your wealth etc and call others to manage your dead body?
