Pearl of Wisdom
'Verily the man of intellect contents himself with less worldly things when accompanied with wisdom, and does not content himself with less wisdom and more worldly things, and this is why their trade [of the transient for the permanent] profits them.?
Imam Musa ibn Jafar al-Kadhim [as] al-Kafi, v. 1, p. 17, no. 12

Fourth Wajib Act - Salaatul Mayyit |
|
The next wajib act is Salaatul Mayyit - (Namaz-e-Janaza) for a six-year-old child or even lower than six if the child during his/her life used to pray salaat and could distinguish good from bad (Mummaiz)
Method
The body, in a coffin, is laid before the person(s) praying in congregation, head on the right side of the congregation and the face towards Qibla. Those praying, stand close to the coffin in a row(s) stretching along both sides from the middle of the coffin. Imam stands in front reciting loudly and Mu'mineen follow the recitation. It is recommended that they all be in (wudhu). For a female mayyit, Imam stands near the chest of the mayyit.
The Salaat
The salaat has no ruku or sujud. It is offered in a standing position. There are five Takbirs with recitations after each Takbir.
