Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: After the completion of burying the deceased, one of his relatives stands at his grave and recites some of the Qur'an. Is this permissible?
Answer:
No, it has no basis. Only supplication is allowed. The Qur'an is not prescribed to be recited at graves. However, when one is finished, he stands over it and says: “O Allah, forgive him. O Allah, grant him firmness with the firm word,” and the like. He and those present do this. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he finished burying the deceased, would stand over the grave and say:Sunan Abi Dawud 3221Sahih (Al-Albani) This is how the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would instruct the people, saying: Sunan Abi Dawud 3221Sahih (Al-Albani) This is after the burial. As for reciting the Qur'an, no, the Qur'an is not recited over it; because there is no evidence for it.
