Reading from the author's text with commentary and collation of manuscripts: "Then, it is well known that many of this Ummah have been afflicted with building mosques over graves, and making graves into mosques without building, and both of these matters are forbidden, and the doer is cursed by the widespread Sunnah, and this is not the place to exhaust all the other hadiths and athar regarding this, for the aim is the general rule, even though the prohibition of this has been mentioned by more than one scholar from the various schools, including the followers of Malik, al-Shafi'i, Ahmad, and others; for this reason, the Salaf from among the Companions and the Tabi'un went to great lengths to prohibit what leads to such things, and there are athar regarding this that are not appropriate to mention here, until Abu Ya'la al-Mawsili narrated in his Musnad: Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah narrated to us, Zayd ibn al-Hubab narrated to us, Ja'far ibn Ibrahim - from the descendants of Dhu al-Janahayn - narrated to us, Ali ibn Umar narrated from his father from Ali ibn Husayn: that he saw a man coming to a gap that was at the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and entering it, and making du'a, so he forbade him, and he said: 'Shall I not relate to you a hadith I heard from my father from my grandfather from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: Do not make my grave an 'Eid, and do not make your homes graves, for your salam reaches me wherever you are.' And Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab al-Maqdisi al-Hafiz included it in his Mustakhraj, and Sa'id ibn Mansur narrated in his Sunan: 'Abd al-Aziz ibn Muhammad narrated to us, Suhayl ibn Abi Suhayl informed me, he said: Al-Hasan ibn al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) saw me at the grave and called out to me, and he was in the house of Fatimah having dinner, and he said: Come to dinner, and I said: I do not want it, and he said: Why did I see you at the grave? I said: I greeted the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said: When you enter the mosque, then greet. Then he said: Indeed, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do not make my grave an 'Eid, and do not make your homes graves, may Allah curse the Jews who took the graves of their prophets as mosques, and send prayers upon me, for your prayers reach me wherever you are. You and the people of Andalus are no different.'"
