The Ruling on Walking on Graves and Treading on Them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh Salih. This brother Muhammad says: What is the ruling on walking on graves and treading on them with sandals, and sitting on them? He says: I see this frequently in the graveyards. Is this action correct? And if it is not correct, should he rebuke them?

Answer:
Yes, this is not permissible. Treading on graves and walking on them is forbidden. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited that. So, rebuke them and explain it to them. Yes.

May Allah bless you,
