The interpretation of this narration is that the missed takbirs are not to be made up in the same manner as they are initially performed with intervals of supplication between them; rather, they are to be made up consecutively, as al-Halabi clarified in his aforementioned narration. The Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah سبحانه وتعالى have mercy on him, said: “There is no harm in praying (Salat Al Mayyit) over the grave, (delayed) by a day and a night; but if it exceeds a day and a night, then the prayer over it is not permissible”.
