Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 11549 — Those who permitted announcing

It is narrated from Abdullah bin Urwah that Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) used to announce funerals: he would pass by the mosque and say: "A servant of Allah has been called and he has responded," or "A bondwoman of Allah has been called and she has responded." Yet only a few of them would get up and go with him.
