Performing Several Janaazahs at One Time

If there are several Janaazah’s present at one time, performing a separate Janaazah Salaah on each deceased is better. However, if one Janaazah Salaah was performed on all the deceased, it will be permissible.[1] The dua of the children should be read after the dua of the adults.

Upon which deceased should Janaazah Salaah be performed first

If each Janaazah Salaah is performed individually, then the Janaazah Salaah of the one possessing the most Deeni virtue (the one possessing the highest rank in Deen) will be performed first, followed by the one who is second in rank, and so forth.[2]


[1] (و إذا اجتمعت الجنائز فإفراد الصلاة) على كل واحدة (أولى) من الجمع وتقديم الأفضل أفضل (وإن جمع) جاز

قال العلامة ابن عابدين – رحمه الله -: (قوله: أولى من الجمع) لأن الجمع مختلف فيه قنية قوله (وتقديم الأفضل أفضل) أي يصلى أولا على أفضلهم ثم يصلى على الذي يليه في الفضل وقيده في الإمداد بقوله إن لم يكن سبق أي وإلا يصلى على الأسبق ولو مفضولا وسيأتي بيان الترتيب قوله (وإن جمع جاز) أي بأن صلى على الكل صلاة واحدة (رد المحتار ٢/٢١٨-٢١٩)
