The Shaykh : Making du'a' for the deceased in a group after his burial is a religious innovation (bid'ah), because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not make du'a' with his companions, but rather he would say:Sunan Abi Dawud 3221Sahih (Al-Albani).
As for them all remaining, for example, and then one person making du'a' and the others saying "Ameen" to it, this is not something established by the Sunnah. Yes.
