The reader: May Allah bless you. What is the ruling on one who, when he visits the graveyards, enters them in order to make supplication for himself, on the basis that his heart softens there?
The Shaykh : No, this is not permissible. One should remember the dead by making supplication for them and visualizing their previous conditions, that they were on the surface of the earth, eating as we eat and drinking as we drink, and enjoying the worldly life.
