Hastening to perform the funeral prayer

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by DarulUloomTT.net

Question

Why do Muslims hasten to perform the funeral prayer?


Answer

This practice is on account of the directive of the Prophet (SAS) when he said, ‘three things must not be delayed, salaah when its time has arrived; the funeral prayer when the body is ready for burial; and the marriage of a girl when her match is found (recorded by Imam Tirmizi)


And Allah knows best.
