Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Allah the Exalted said:
O you who have believed, do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet or be loud to him in speech like the loudness of some of you to othersيَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَرْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ فَوْقَ صَوْتِ النَّبِيِّ وَلَا تَجْهَرُوا لَهُ بِالْقَوْلِ كَجَهْرِ بَعْضِكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ
[Al-Hujurat 49:2]
the verse. Is it permissible for us to raise our voices in the Haram, meaning near the grave?

Answer:
When greeting him and at his grave (peace and blessings be upon him), do not raise your voice. But if you are far from that, raise your voice to the extent of need. Yes.
