[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When the deceased enters the grave, the sun is set before him, so he says, 'Leave me so that I may pray.'"  

ابن حبّان:٣١١٦ – أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُوسَى بِعَسْكَرِ مُكْرَمٍ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ قَحْطَبَةَ بْنِ مَرْزُوقٍ بِفَمِ الصِّلْحِ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ الْأُبُلِّيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا دَخَلَ الْمَيِّتُ الْقَبْرَ مُثِّلَتْ لَهُ الشَّمْسُ عِنْدَ غُرُوبِهَا فَيَقُولُ دَعُونِي أُصَلِّي»
