How should the Janazah be positioned when praying?
Question
For example, should the head of the mayyit (dead) be the right or left of the Imaam facing the Qibla? Is the positioning of a male mayyit (dead) different from that a female?
Answer
The head should be on the right of the Imaam. The Imaam will stand in line with the heart of a male and female.
And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
