You should also read the Quran at the graveside. Stand facing the grave and recite as much of the Quran as possible and make dua for the forgiveness of the departed. A few ways of praying for the dead, as related in the Ahadith are:
1) Recite Surat Ikhlaas 11 times. it is related in a Hadith that whoever visits the Qabrastaan and recites Surat Ikhlaas 11 times and then prayed for the dead, will be rewarded as many fold as the number of dead in the Qabrastaan.
2) It has been reported in a hadith that whoever visits the Qabrastaan and recites:
? Surat Fatiha
? Surat Ikhlaas
? Surat Takaasur
and then prays for the dead, the people of the grave will also ask Allah for such a person’s forgiveness.
3) Recite Surat Yaseen. In a hadith it is reported that if a person recites Surat Yaseen in the Kabrastaan, the punishment of the dead will be eased, an the reciter will be rewarded just as much as the dead.
and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
