The servant of Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him), Isa, narrates: I performed a funeral prayer behind my master (Sayyiduna Hudhayfah bin Yaman, may Allah be pleased with him), who is a righteous man, and he said the takbir five times. Then he stated: "I was not mistaken, rather I pronounced the takbir just as my beloved friend, Sayyiduna Abu al-Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him, i.e., the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him), pronounced the takbir."
