[Machine] Huzaifah, when there was a funeral in his family, nobody would announce it, and he would say, "I am afraid that it may become a eulogy. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbidding eulogies." This is narrated from Ibn Mas'ud, Ibn Umar, Abu Sa'eed, Alqamah, Ibn al-Musayyab, Rabi'ah ibn Khaytham, and Ibrahim al-Nakhai. It has also been reported to me from Malik ibn Anas that he said, "I do not like shouting about a man's death at the doors of the mosques. Even if he stands on the steps of the mosques and people know about his death, there is no harm in that." And it has been reported from Anas ibn Malik that the Prophet ﷺ eulogized Ja'far, Zaid, Ibn Rawaha, and from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet ﷺ eulogized the Najashi. And from him regarding the death of a man who used to stand in the mosque and was buried at night, "Why didn't you inform me?" And in another narration, "What prevented you from informing me?"  

كَانَ حُذَيْفَةُ إِذَا كَانَتْ فِي أَهْلِهِ جِنَازَةٌ لَمْ يُؤْذِنْ بِهَا أَحَدًا وَيَقُولُ إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يَكُونَ نَعْيًا إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَنْهَى عَنِ النَّعْيِ وَيُرْوَى فِي ذَلِكَ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ وَأَبِي سَعِيدٍ ثُمَّ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ وَابْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ وَالرَّبِيعِ بْنِ خَيْثَمٍ وَإِبْرَاهِيمَ النَّخَعِيِّ وَبَلَغَنِي عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَا أُحِبُّ الصِّيَاحَ لِمَوْتِ الرَّجُلِ عَلَى أَبْوَابِ الْمَسَاجِدِ وَلَوْ وَقَفَ عَلَى حِلَقِ الْمَسَاجِدِ فَأَعْلَمَ النَّاسِ بِمَوْتِهِ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِهِ بَأْسٌ وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ نَعَى جَعْفَرًا وَزَيْدًا وَابْنَ رَوَاحَةَ وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ نَعَى النَّجَاشِيَّ وَعَنْهُ فِي مَوْتِ الْإِنْسَانِ الَّذِي كَانَ يَقُمُّ الْمَسْجِدَ وَدُفِنَ لَيْلًا أَفَلَا كُنْتُمْ آذَنْتُمُونِي وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ مَا مَنَعَكُمْ أَنْ تُعْلِمُونِي؟
