In Christian liturgical practice there are a lot of different types of church services. They accompany a person from birth to death. On the last journey, Christians accompany their relatives to the funeral service. In this rite, permissive prayer is considered the main one.
The religious duty of every person who considers himself a Christian is worthy to spend on the last journey of their loved ones or relatives. The church prays for the forgiveness of the sins of the deceased, not only at the funeral services and requiem. When a person goes to eternity, a rite of Orthodox burial and burial service is performed.
At the end of the funeral service, the priest recites a specific prayer, which in the Christian practics is called "permissive." The text of this prayer is written on a sheet that is part of any Christian funeral set. On top of the sheet is the so-called whisk, which is cut off. The rest is permissive prayer. After the priest reads it at the end of the funeral service, the prayer is placed in the right hand of the deceased.
The text of the permissive prayer contains petitions on behalf of the priest and other prayers for the forgiveness of the sins of the deceased. The hope is realized that God will "allow" (liberate, forgive) the sins of a person who has completed the earthly journey.
In addition, prayer seeks liberation from various curses that during earthly life could take place in relation to a person. The priest asks for deliverance from the excommunication of the church, the bishop with the hope that God will accept in the paradise of the deceased.
Thus, it turns out that permissive prayer is an important component of the funeral rite. It is no coincidence that some clergymen call this prayer the main thing for a deceased person.
