Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on one who slaughters for Allah at the grave of a wali from the awliya (close friends of Allah), believing in the blessing of the place?

Answer:
This is a means to shirk (associating partners with Allah); this is a bid'ah (religious innovation), because this place is not a place for slaughter, and it is a means to shirk.
