Mr Morsi’s son, Abdullah, said in a tweet that his father was buried near two Muslim Brotherhood spiritual leaders in eastern Cairo’s Nasr City district.
He said security agencies had refused to allow their father to be buried at the family grave in the Nile Delta province of Sharqiya.
“We washed his noble body at the hospital of Torah prison and read the prayers for him inside the mosque of the hospital.
The burial took place at the grave of Muslim Brotherhood guides in Nasr city,” Abdullah said.
Mr Morsi was a member of the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood, became Egypt’s first democratically elected leader in 2012 before being deposed in a military coup the following year.
Monday’s session was part of a trial in which he was facing treason charges for allegedly leaking secret state documents to Qatar while he was in office.
