The ruling on marking a grave with blocks or stones
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to mark the grave with blocks or stones on all its sides?
Answer:
If the grave needs this, there is nothing wrong with it. But if there is no need for it, it is not permissible. This may also be a means to building on the grave, so I hold that it is not permissible because it is a means to building on the grave, and the grave does not need this.
