The manner of greeting the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at his grave
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q4, 5: Was it not the custom of the Companions to stand when greeting the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)? When is it permissible to greet the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) while standing? Greeting the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) while standing is permissible at the Blessed Garden. So why is it not permissible if one is far from it?
A4, 5: Standing at his grave (peace and blessings be upon him) when greeting him is not for the sake of the greeting, so that standing when greeting him in other places could be analogized to it. Rather, standing is remaining in the state one was in when arriving at the grave on foot. There is no establishment of standing in this; the matter is the same as visiting the graves of other Muslims, where one greets the people of the grave if he arrives standing, not for the sake of the greeting, but because he arrived there on foot.
Or if he arrives riding, he greets them in the state he arrived in. And success is from Allah. May Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
