Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
When is the supplication for steadfastness for the deceased made, during the burial or after it?

Answer:
It is made after the burial is completed; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he finished burying the deceased, would stand over him and say:
Seek forgiveness for your brother, and beg steadfastness for him, for he will be questioned now.استغفروا لأخيكم واسألوا له التثبيت فإنه الآن يسأل
Sunan Abi Dawud 3221Sahih (Al-Albani)
As for at the time of burial, he would say: In the name of Allah and upon the religion of the Messenger of Allah.
