Al-Qaradawi's body was buried in the Meseymir Cemetery after the funeral prayer performed at the Mohammed bin Abdulvehhab Mosque in Doha, the capital of Qatar.
A funeral prayer in absentia was held for Yusuf al-Qaradavi, the founder and former President of the World Muslim Scholars Union, who passed away at the age of 96 the other day, in Ankara Hacı Bayram Mosque, after the afternoon prayer.
While many NGOs participated in the funeral prayer in absentia, which was led by the Anatolian Youth Association (AGD) Ankara Branch, the prayer was performed with a large congregation.
