Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on following the historical sites through which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed, such as identifying the locations of his route to al-Ta'if, where he stopped, and where he sat? Is this prescribed, and is it…?
Answer:
It is not prescribed; rather, this leads to evil. People come along and are deceived by these sites, seek blessing from them, and revere them, so this is not permissible.
