Is it prescribed to call people for the funeral prayer?

Question

Praise be to Allah.

It is not prescribed to give the call via loudspeakers for worshippers to
assemble for the funeral prayer, whether that is by saying “as-salaatu
jaami‘ah (prayer is about to begin)” or saying “as-salaatu ‘ala
al-mayyit (prayer for the deceased)”.

Al-Bahooti (may Allah have mercy on him) said: No call should be given for
the funeral prayer or Taraweeh, because that is an innovation. Even worse
than that is what is done at the funeral prayer of reciting poetry or
mentioning characteristics, most of which may be lies. In fact that comes
under the heading of wailing for the dead.

Imam ash-Shaafa‘i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “… With regard to the
funeral prayer and all naafil prayers apart from Eid prayer and the eclipse
prayer, there is no adhaan (call to prayer) for them or call by saying “as-salaatu
jaami‘ah (prayer is about to begin)”.

End quote from Sharh al-Muhadhdhab, 3/83

In al-Mawsoo‘ah al-Fiqhiyyah (16/7) it says: In ash-Sharh
as-Sagheer it says: It is makrooh to shout in the mosque or at its door,
saying, “So and so has died, hasten to his funeral!” However, announcing it
in a low voice without shouting is not makrooh. End quote.

As-San‘aani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: His saying in ash-Sharh,
that it is mustahabb when calling people to prayer on Eid and other
occasions when it is not prescribed to give the adhaan, such as the funeral
prayer, to say “as-salaatu jaami‘ah (prayer is about to begin)”, is
not correct, because there is no evidence to suggest that it is mustahabb.
If it were mustahabb, the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)
would not have omitted to do it, and neither would the Rightly Guided
Caliphs after him. Yes, that is proven in the case of the eclipse prayer,
but it is not proven in other cases and it is not valid to draw an analogy,
because if the same reason existed in his time but he did not do it, doing
it after his time is an innovation. So it is not correct to affirm it on the
basis of analogy or otherwise.
