حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ كَيْسَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى قَبْرٍ، فَقَالَ: " ائْتُونِي بِجَرِيدَتَيْنِ "، فَجَعَلَ إِحْدَاهُمَا عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ، وَالْأُخْرَى عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ، فَقِيلَ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، أَيَنْفَعُهُ ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ: " لَنْ يَزَالَ يُخَفَّفَ عَنْهُ بَعْضُ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ مَا كَانَ فِيهِمَا نُدُوٌّ " (١)،

It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) passed by a grave and said, "Bring me two branches." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) placed one branch at the head of the grave and the other at the foot. Someone asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Will this benefit him?" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "As long as there is freshness in these branches, his punishment will be lessened."
