Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it prescribed to greet the people of the graveyards when I pass by the graveyard in my car, and it is next to my house? Is it prescribed for me at all times, or just once?
Answer:
If you pass by them on foot, in your car, or on a mount, it is recommended that you greet them and say, "Peace be upon you, O people of the graveyards," orSahih Muslim 974a "We ask Allah for well-being for us and for you. O Allah, do not deprive us of their reward, do not test us after them, and forgive us and them." This is recommended. Every time you pass by the graveyards, you make this supplication for them and greet them. Yes.
