A: The Sunnah (acts, sayings or approvals of the Prophet) is that the family of the deceased should be served food according to their need, since they are busy with their affliction. The Prophet (peace be upon him) commanded that the family of Ja`far should be served food when they received the news of his death. The served food should be according to what one can afford. The command mentioned above on the part of the Prophet (peace be upon him) is not obligatory. Rather, it is Mustahab (desirable), since it is classified under commiseration with others.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
