The ruling on attending the Funerals of the People of superstitions

Question :

Is it possible for Ahlus-Sunnah (the people of the Sunnah) to attend the funerals of the people of superstitions and pray over their deceased?

Answer:

The people of superstitions, whose superstitious beliefs reach the level of Shirk with Allâh, like those who seek assistance and help from the deceased or those who are absent, such as the jinns, the angels or other creatures, are disbelievers. It is not permissible to pray over their dead or attend their funerals. Concerning those whose superstitious beliefs do not take them to the level of Shirk, such as the innovators who celebrate birthdays that do not contain Shirk, or the night of Al- Isra' and Al-Mi'raj, or similar things, they are disobedient sinners. They are to be prayed over and their funerals attended. What is hoped for the sinful people of those who believe in At- Tawhid is hoped for them. This is due to Allâh, the Most High's Statement:
"Verily, Allah does not forgive that anything is associated with Him, but He forgives whoever He wishes for what is less than that."
