The Ruling on Dealing with Grave Worshippers Who Rub Themselves Against Shrines

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. We see many grave worshippers these days in al-Madinah al-Munawwarah declaring their shirk (associating partners with Allah) openly, and rubbing themselves against the master and the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When we advise them, they mock us and say, "You are Wahhabis." What should we do with them?

Answer:
You must forbid the evil with your tongues by explaining it to them. If they do not comply, you must report their case to the authorities, to the governor of al-Madinah, to the committees, and to the Da'wah office. Inform the authorities. Yes, this is what is obligatory for you.
