Placing a palm frond on the grave

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on placing a palm frond on a grave? And if we tell them that this is not permissible, they say: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did it?

Answer:
This is specific to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Placing the frond on the grave
It is hoped that their punishment may be abated till those two pieces of the leaf get dried.قال لعله يخفف عنهما ما لم ييبسا
Sahih al-Bukhari 6052
This is specific to the Messenger. Allah revealed to the Messenger that the two graves, that the two men in the graves are being punished. You do not know; perhaps they are in bliss, and you do not know. You do not know the state of the deceased. Allah revealed that to the Messenger. Yes.
