Is there any transmitted evidence regarding the impermissibility of specifically designating the day of Eid for visiting graves?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Okay, one last thing. Someone asked me a question, saying, "You say that it is not permissible to specifically designate the day of Eid for visiting graves, so you need a transmitted evidence for this. Do you have one in mind?"
The Shaykh : A transmitted evidence?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Such that it enters, meaning, into his mind?
The questioner : Yes, exactly.
The Shaykh : No, not everyone understands the legal proofs, so Allah the Exalted said:[An-Nahl 16:43] The transmitted evidence is that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), the Companions, the Salaf, and the Imams did not have this phenomenon among them, and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan an-Nasa'i 1578Sahih (Darussalam) This is the evidence.
The questioner : Yes, this is it, and may Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : And may Allah protect you, if Allah wills.
The questioner: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace and the mercy of Allah.
The Shaykh : A transmitted evidence?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Such that it enters, meaning, into his mind?
The questioner : Yes, exactly.
The Shaykh : No, not everyone understands the legal proofs, so Allah the Exalted said:
So ask the people of the message if you do not know.
فَاسْأَلُوا أَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ لا تَعْلَمُونَevery innovation is going astray, and every going astray is in the Fire
كل بدعة ضلالة وكل ضلالة في النارThe questioner : Yes, this is it, and may Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : And may Allah protect you, if Allah wills.
The questioner: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace and the mercy of Allah.
