Raising the Hands at the Takbir in the Funeral Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, there are many questions being asked: Is the Sunnah in the funeral prayer to raise the hands at the takbir, or is the Sunnah not to raise them?

Answer:
Both are permissible. You definitely raise your hand for the takbir of entering the prayer. The discussion is about the takbirs other than the takbir of entering the prayer. And the stronger position, and Allah knows best, is that both are permissible.
