Is it valid to give a lecture just before the janaazah Salaat?

Question

Is it valid to give a lecture just before the janaazah Salaat?

Answer

The practice of giving a lecture before Janaazah Salaat is bid'ah sayyiah (an evil innovation). It is haraam. Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) commanded burial as soon as possible. There should be no delay whatsoever after the ghusl, and kafan. Shaitaan has whispered this new bid'ah into the minds of the perpetrators.
