Filming Preaching in Graveyards and Graves

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Some preachers go to the graves and film clips of their preaching to the people. Sometimes they even enter inside the grave and film it as a sermon for the people. Is this matter prescribed?

Answer:
No, it is not prescribed. This is what the righteous Salaf did, and the one who is not admonished except by filming is not admonished.
