Dua after Janaazah Salaah
Question
Whether One can offer Supplications (Dua) in front of Janaza after Namaz-e- Janaza, is it not Biddah, as janaza Prayer itself is a Dua?
Answer
The Salaat-ul-Janaazah is a du`aa itself. There is no point in making a du`aa after the du`aa has already been done through the salaah.
