Sayyiduna Wathilah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When the deceased was placed in his grave, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: "In the name of Allah, and according to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah." Then he would place a clod of earth under the nape of his neck, a clod between his shoulders, a clod between his knees, and another behind him.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. Its chain contains Bistam bin Abd al-Wahhab, who is majhul (unknown).
