What is the ruling on raising the hands while saying the takbir in the funeral prayer?

There is no disagreement among scholars regarding the raising of hands for the first takbir in the funeral prayer.

They differed concerning the takbirat thereafter: - The Hanafis and Malik are of the view that hands should not be raised except for the first takbir. - The Shafi'is and Hanbalis are of the view that it is recommended to raise hands for every takbir. - Ibn al-Mundhir, Ibn Baz, and Ibn Uthaymin chose the opinion of raising hands with every takbir, citing the actions of the two Companions Ibn Umar and Ibn Abbas, and what was narrated as marfu' from the Prophet, may Allah's prayers and peace be upon him.
