The Ruling on Excusing Those Who Circumambulate Graves Due to Their Ignorance
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Those who circumambulate graves, such as the grave of al-Husayn and others, are they excused due to their ignorance, since some preachers say—there is a question from outside the country—that they are excused because they do not know tawhid (the oneness of Allah)?
The Shaykh:
They are not excused, for they hear the Qur'an and they hear the Prophetic hadiths in their own language. The proof has reached them, yet they did not seek it out and did not ask about it.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh! May Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is this statement correct, and it is...
The Shaykh:
Allah the Exalted and Majestic says on the tongue of Musa:[Al-An'am 6:19]. Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) says: Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "And it was revealed to me this Qur'an to warn you thereby and whoever it reaches." That is, whoever the Qur'an reaches, the proof has been established against him. Yes.

وَأُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ هَٰذَا الْقُرْآنُ لِأُنذِرَكُم بِهِ وَمَن بَلَغَ
