Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: In some Islamic countries, people visit graves and then pray at them out of ignorance. He asks: What is the method of advising such people?
Answer:
By Allah, I do not think it is ignorance on their part, because now, praise be to Allah, the call to Allah has spread through the media; they hear the Friday sermons and lectures and the prohibition of this, but some of them do not want to move away from what they are upon, or what their fathers and grandfathers were upon. Yes.
