Is it permissible in Islamic law to collect a monthly sum from each employee into a dedicated fund for feeding the family of the deceased and their guests for three days?

It is recommended to prepare food for the family of the deceased as a form of assistance and to console their hearts, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Prepare food for Ja'far's family, for indeed, what has come upon them occupies them." However, no one should be forced to pay money for this; rather, it should only be taken from those who give it willingly. It is not permissible to take money out of embarrassment.

As for the family of the deceased preparing food for people, it is disliked, unless there is a need, such as the arrival of mourners from distant places.
