What is the ruling on speaking, laughing, and raising one's voice near funerals?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
Speaking, laughing, and raising one's voice near a funeral procession should be avoided, as it contradicts taking admonition from death, indicates heedlessness and hardness of heart, causes harm to the family of the deceased, and shows a lack of consideration for their affliction. Furthermore, raising one's voice and engaging in worldly talk is disliked in the mosque if the funeral is taking place inside it.
