Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a questioner says: What is the ruling on planting olive trees on the graves of Muslims and shading them with them?
Answer:
This is permissible. This is an abomination, and it is not permissible to place trees on graves. Rather, graves should be kept free of trees, because if trees are on them, people may believe in them and worship these trees, so this is not permissible. Yes.
