Salamun Alaykum,

The following question was kindly answered by Mulla Asghar.

Question:


Are the prayers between the takbirs in the salatu-l-janaza meant to be read
silently or out loud?

............................................................................

Answer:

The Takbirs should be recited aloud. It does not matter whether the rest of
the prayers are read silently or aloud. However, if the prayer is being
prayer in congregation, the Imam must recite the entire prayer out loud so
that followers who are unsure of what to recite may follow with him.

Wasalaam
