The ruling on raising the voice with dhikr at the bier of the deceased

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh. When the deceased is on the bier and being lifted onto the poles, some people say "La ilaha illa Allah" and repeat some of the dhikr. Is there any basis for this?

Answer:
It is not permissible to raise the voice with the funeral, it is not permissible to raise voices with the funeral; rather, it should be done in calmness and tranquility. Whoever wants to make du'a for the deceased should do so without raising his voice, he should make du'a for him without raising his voice, or one person should make du'a and the people should say "Ameen" or follow him. All of this is from bid'ah (religious innovations). Yes.
