I came across the below today:
> Grass, etc. should be placed on the grave of the deceased, as long as
> it remains fresh it will continue to do tasbīh, it is for this reason
> that removing fresh grass from the graveyard is disliked (makrūh),
> just as it is mentioned in Radd al-Muhtār in the chapter of funerals,
>
> “قطع النبات الرطب والحشیش من المقبرۃ دون الیابس کما فی البحر والدرر
> وشرح المنیۃ وعللہ فی الامداد بانہ مادام رطباً یسبح اﷲ تعالٰی فیونس
> المیّت وتنزل بذکرہ الرحمۃ ونحوہ فی الخانیۃ انتھی”
>
> “It is disliked to cut fresh grass from the graveyards, not dry grass,
> just as it is stated in al-Bahr, al-Durr, Sharh al-Munyah, and its
> reason is mentioned in Imdād; as long as it remains fresh it continues
> to do tasbīh of Allāh (Most High), due to which the deceased
> experiences ease, and something similar is mentioned in Khāniyah.”
