What is the ruling on walking over graves?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling on one who walks over graves?

Answer:
It is forbidden, forbidden. Desecrating graves by walking on them or sitting on them, or throwing filth or water on them, or harming the graves in any way of harm, means that the sanctity of Muslims in death is like their sanctity in life. Yes. Also, graves are not to be exalted, exaggerated in, built upon, or plastered; the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade all of this.
