The questioner:
And he said: My brother, what is the manner of supplication for the deceased at his grave?
The Shaykh:
As the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This is when it is done immediately after the burial. Sunan Abi Dawud 3221Sahih (Al-Albani) One says: “O Allah, forgive him. O Allah, grant him steadfastness. O Allah, forgive him. O Allah, grant him steadfastness.” And this supplication is repeated. As for visiting after the burial, one supplicates with whatever is easy from the types of supplications: “O Allah, forgive him, have mercy on him, grant him well-being, pardon him, and protect him from the punishment of the grave and the punishment of the Fire.” And one supplicates for him with whatever is easy.
