1528. Khârijah bin Zaid bin Thâbit narrated that Yazid bin Thâbit, who was older than Zaid, said: "We went out with the
Prophet ﷺ and when we reached Al-Baqi', we saw a new grave. He asked about it and they said: '(It is) so-and-so (a woman).' He recognized the name and said: 'Why did you not tell me about her?' They said: 'You were taking a nap and you were fasting, and we did not like to disturb you.' He said: 'Do not do that; I do not want to see it happen again that one of you dies, while I am still among you, and you do not tell me, for my prayer for him is a mercy.' Then he went to the grave and we lined up in rows behind him, and he said four Takbir (i.e. for the funeral prayer)." (Sahih)

Commentary
The method of the funeral prayer at the grave is the same as that performed over the deceased before burial.
