The ruling on praying over the deceased in his grave after burial

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the ruling on praying over the deceased while he is in his grave, given that the one who wants to pray over him has already prayed over him before the burial?

Answer:
With the people of knowledge. The one who wants to pray over him has already prayed over him before the burial. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed over a grave. The grave of the woman who died at night; she used to stand in the mosque and died at night, and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was not informed of her death and did not attend her. He went (peace and blessings be upon him) with someone who would direct him to her grave and prayed over her. Praying over the grave for the one who missed praying over the deceased before burial is prescribed, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did. As for the one who prayed over him before the burial, that is sufficient.
