Seeking Blessing from Graves and Visiting Them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Mustafa Adam says: We are in our village, and he is from outside the Kingdom. He says: We are in our village, and we have customs and traditions regarding visiting graves and greeting them. It even reaches the point where we bring some things to seek blessing from the grave. What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
This is forbidden and not permissible. Seeking blessing from graves is shirk (associating partners with Allah). Blessing is sought only from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and it is not sought from the dead. Yes.
