Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Fatwa number ( 20480 )
Q: The Al-Jawf Charity Association intendsin Al-Jawfto write the formula of greeting the deceased on large boards with clear lettering and place them at the entrances of the area's cemeteries to remind people of this greeting during burial operations or when visiting, so we hope you will guide us to the formula of the greeting that we will write.
A : It is prescribed to teach people the supplications and etiquettes in lessons, sermons, and other such settings, including the rulings on entering cemeteries and how to greet the deceased Muslims. As for writing the formula of the greeting on boards and hanging them on the walls of the cemeteries, this was not the practice of the righteous predecessors, so it should not be done. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
