Musnad Ahmad 14873

Translation

✧ "We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ one day to Sa'd ibn Mu'adh when he passed away. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed for him and he was placed in his grave and leveled, the Prophet ﷺ glorified Allah. So we glorified for a long time, then the Prophet ﷺ made takbir (said Allahu Akbar) and we also made takbir. It was said, 'O Messenger of Allah, why did you glorify and then make takbir?' He said, 'Indeed, the grave of this righteous servant became narrow for him until Allah expanded it for him.'"
