مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« يُصَلِّي عَلَى اَلْجِنَازَةِ أَوْلَى اَلنَّاسِ بِهَا أَوْ يَأْمُرُ مَنْ يُحِبُّ»
Muhammad ibn Ya'qub from Ali ibn Ibrahim from his father from Ibn Abi 'Umayr from one of his companions from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said:
Imam al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: “The one who has the greatest right over the deceased performs the funeral prayer (Salat Al Mayyit), or he appoints whomever he wishes.”
