Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. He says: What is the ruling on raising one's voice at the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?

Answer:
Allah the Exalted and Majestic said:
O you who have believed, do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophetيَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَرْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ فَوْقَ صَوْتِ النَّبِيِّ
[Al-Hujurat 49:2]
up to His saying:
Indeed, those who lower their voices before the Messenger of Allahإِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَغُضُّونَ أَصْوَاتَهُمْ عِندَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ
[Al-Hujurat 49:3]
Lowering one's voice in the presence of the Messenger, whether he is alive or dead, is required as a sign of respect toward the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)
Indeed, those who call you, [O Muhammad], from behind the chambers - most of them do not use reason.إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُنَادُونَكَ مِن وَرَاءِ الْحُجُرَاتِ أَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ
[Al-Hujurat 49:4]
Therefore, this is not permissible. It is not permissible to raise one's voice at the grave of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), just as it is not permissible during his lifetime, as a sign of respect toward him (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
