Chapter on the Prayer over the Dead

From him, from Ibrahim ibn Hashim from al-Nawfali from al-Sakuni from Imam Ja’far عليه السلام from his forefathers عليه السلام, peace be upon them, who said: Imam al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: “A child inherits and the funeral prayer is performed over him if he falls from his mother's womb (birth) and cries aloud. But if he does not cry aloud (stillborn), he is neither inherited from nor is the funeral prayer performed over him.”
