يُسْتَحَبُّ أَنْ يُدْخَلَ مَعَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ جَرِيدَةٌ رَطْبَةٌ وَ يُرْفَعَ قَبْرُهُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ قَدْرَ أَرْبَعِ أَصَابِعَ مَضْمُومَةٍ وَ يُنْضَحَ عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءُ وَ يُخَلَّى عَنْهُ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Usman Bin Isa, from Sama’at, from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘It is recommended that you should insert a wet twig in his grave with him, and raise his grave from the ground by a measurement of four clenched fingers, and exude the water upon it, and isolate from it’.
