A Response to Those Who Attribute the Prohibition of Numbering Graves to the Wahhabis
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: numbering graves with numbers
Answer:
They say that if one forbids that, it is the Wahhabis; this is the religion of the Wahhabis. The Wahhabis do not have a separate religion; their religion is the religion of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and the religion of his Rightly Guided Caliphs. This is the religion of the Wahhabis. They did not bring anything new; rather, they renewed the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
