Is It Permissible In Islam To Attend Funeral Prayers Of Non-Muslims?

Is it permissible in Islam to attend funeral prayers of non-Muslims?

Muslims may attend the funeral ceremonies of non-Muslims only for humanitarian purposes such as offering condolences or consoling them. However, it is not permissible for a person who attends such ceremonies to attend the prayers, worships, and similar religious rituals and ceremonies of other religions and ask mercy from Allah for non-Muslim persons who are dead . The Messenger of Allah (saw) gave talqin of “La ilaha illallah” to his uncle Abu Talib when he was about to die, but he did not believe, then the Prophet (saw) said, “By Allah, I will keep on asking forgiveness for you unless I am forbidden (by Allah).” Upon this incident, the 113th verse of Surah al-Tawbah which prohibits asking forgiveness for non-Muslims was revealed (Bukhari, Jana’iz, 80).
