Saying Takbeer while carrying the deceased.

fatwa-tt October 26, 2016

Question:

I have attended several Janazah and observed that when the body is carried for burial Takbeer (Allahu Akbar) is chanted? Is that action from the established Sunnah of the Prophet (peace be upon him)?

Answer:

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

It is not permissible to raise one voice while carrying the deceased, whether it be through the recitation of the Quran or the chanting of any Dhikr. Rather one should remain silent or in his mind he may engage himself in Dhikr and make Dua for the deceased.[1]

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
