Bulugh al-Maram, 563
Jabir (RAA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say four Takbirat over the dead, and would recite al-Fatihah in (after saying) the first (opening) Takbirat.’ Related by Ash-Shafi’i with a weak chain of narrators.
وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ - رضى الله عنه - قَالَ: { كَانَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ - صلى الله عليه وسلم -يُكَبِّرُ عَلَى جَنَائِزِنَا أَرْبَعًا وَيَقْرَأُ بِفَاتِحَةِ اَلْكِتَابِ فِي اَلتَّكْبِيرَةِ اَلْأُولَى } رَوَاهُ اَلشَّافِعِيُّ بِإِسْنَادٍ ضَعِيفٍ [1] .
