Musnad Ahmad 9686

Translation

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a grave and said: 'Bring me two fresh palm stalks.' He placed one at the head and the other at the feet. It was said: 'O Prophet of Allah, will that benefit him?' He said: 'He will continue to have some of the punishment of the grave lightened as long as there remains any moisture in them.'
