The Recommended Method of Placing Soil upon the Grave


The recommended method is to stand at the head side of the grave and place soil three times with both hands. The first time, recite:

مِنۡهَا خَلَقۡنَٰكُمۡ 

“We created you from this earth.” 

The second time, recite:

 وَفِيهَا نُعِيدُكُمۡ  

“And into it We shall return you.”

The third time, recite:

 وَمِنۡهَا نُخۡرِجُكُمۡ تَارَةً أُخۡرَىٰ

“And from it We shall bring you forth once again.”

After that, the remaining soil may be placed using a shovel or other means.
