The Ruling on Following the Traces of the Companions and the Places Where the Prophet Sat

Question:
And the Shaykh testified, it was a book in Madinah, it was a book of knowledge, and it was behind him, and from the Companions or from the mosque, this was permissible.

Answer:
This is a mythological activity in following traces and following the dwellings of the Companions and the birthplace of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and so on, and the places or mosques they claim the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated in, or prayed in, or sat in. This is a revival of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance and a revival of the means of shirk (associating partners with Allah). These are mythologizers, and they must be deterred and prevented from this action. And whoever finds a book that warns about these matters, let him submit it to the Department of Ifta so that the appropriate action is taken against it. Yes.
