The answer

This act has no basis in Islamic law. What is prescribed when following funerals is to remember the Afterlife and death, and to supplicate for the deceased for forgiveness and mercy without raising one's voice. Indeed, the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, disliked raising voices during funerals, remembrance (dhikr), and fighting.
