The Ruling on Reciting the Qur'an over Graves

Question:
Among the questions that came to the program, Shaykh, this questioner says: Regarding reciting the Qur'an over the grave, in our country, after the deceased is buried, they recite the Qur'an for the deceased after his burial.

Answer:
This is an innovation that has been introduced, so the Qur'an is not recited in the graveyards. It is not recited in the graveyards in general, nor is it recited at the graves, nor at specific graves. All of this is bid'ah (religious innovation). The one who wants good for the deceased should make du'a' (supplication) for him, making du'a' for him for forgiveness and mercy. As for reciting at his grave, there is no evidence for this, so it is bid'ah. Reciting at the graves is bid'ah, so it is not permissible to do it, and the deceased does not benefit from it.
The Qur'an is only recited for the living who hear it and are able to act upon it . As for the dead, du'a' is made for them at their graves, always and forever, in any place, du'a' is made for them for mercy and forgiveness, for the dead of the Muslims. Yes.
