Is the death of one's father and his burial in Al-Baqi‘ a blessing? And does praying over him in the Haram have more virtue than in other mosques? And do the children benefit from their father's striving in the way of Islam in Allah being pleased with them? And can one buried in Al-Baqi‘ ask Allah for something for his children on the Day of Resurrection, such as for them to be with him in Paradise?
Transporting the deceased from Mecca to Medina to be buried in Al-Baqi' is not permissible, due to the unwarranted delay in burial that it entails.
