Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. The questioner asks: What is the authenticity of what we heard, namely that at some point in time a flood came to the area of al-Madinah, and that the flood reached the graves of some of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), causing some of their bodies to be exposed, after which they were reburied under the direction of Shaykh Muhammad ibn Ibrahim?
Answer:
No, that is an old matter. It happened when they diverted the Al-Aziziyah spring. In the time of Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him), when they diverted the Al-Aziziyah spring and were present, the leg of one of the Companions appeared, so they buried it.
