Bayhaqi 7018 — Praying at the grave after the deceased is buried

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ بْنُ عَبْدَانَ، أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى الْوَاسِطِيُّ، ثنا عَمْرٌو يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ هُشَيْمٍ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ، عَنْ خَارِجَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ: خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الْبَقِيعِ فَرَأَى قَبْرًا جَدِيدًا، فَسَأَلَ عَنْهُ فَذُكِرَ لَهُ فَعَرَفَهُ، فَقَالَ: " أَلَا آذَنْتُمُونِي "، قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كُنْتَ قَائِلًا فَكَرِهْنَا أَنْ نُؤْذِيَكَ، فَقَالَ: " لَا تَفْعَلُوا لَا أَعْرِفَنَّ مَا مَاتَ مِنْكُمْ مَيِّتٌ مَا دُمْتُ بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِكُمْ إِلَّا آذَنْتُمُونِي فَإِنَّ صَلَاتِي عَلَيْهِ رَحْمَةٌ "، ثُمَّ أَتَى الْقَبْرَ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ فَصَفَّنَا عَلَيْهِ وَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعًا وَرُوِيَ فِيهِ عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، وَبُرَيْدَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
Yazid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We went out with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to al-Baqi', and he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw a new grave and asked about it. The Companions told him, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) recognised the person. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Why did you not inform me?" It was said: You (peace and blessings be upon him) were asleep, so we did not think it right to trouble you (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not do that. As long as I am among you, let me not find that any of you has died without your informing me, for my prayer over him is a mercy for him." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) came to the grave and offered the funeral prayer; we formed rows behind him (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said four takbirs.
