وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى عَلَى جَنَازَةٍ ثُمَّ أَتَى الْقَبْر فَحَثَا عَلَيْهِ مِنْ قِبَلِ رَأْسِهِ ثَلَاثًا. رَوَاهُ ابْنُ مَاجَه

Translation

Abu Hurayra reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, prayed over a funeral, then went to the grave and cast three handfuls of earth over it from the head end. Ibn Majah transmitted it.
