"And never (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) pray (funeral prayer) for any of them (hypocrites) who dies, nor stand at his grave. Certainly they disbelieved in Allaah and His Messenger, and died while they were Faasiqoon (rebellious, — disobedient to Allaah and His Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم)” [al-Tawbah 9:84].

"Imam Maalik (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “The Muslim should not wash his father if his father died as a disbeliever, or attend his funeral, or go down into his grave, unless he fears that he may be neglected, in which case he may bury him." End quote from al-Mudawwanah, 1/261

Could I get some clarification on this please? I read this as referring to carrying out Islamic funerals and prayers - yani, that we shouldn't treat the death of a kuffar as we do the death of a Muslim. Could someone (anyone) please provide some clarification?
