What should be done after the burial?

Question:

After the burial, should the Muslims disperse and get on with their daily routines, or should they go to the house of the deceased person and offer the Fatiha first (reciting Surah Fatiha and other parts of the Holy Qur’an and asking Allah Almighty to give the reward of the recitation to the deceased person)?

Answer:

It is best that they break-up and follow their daily routines. They should not consider it obligatory to go to the deceased person’s house.

And Allah ﷻ knows the best
