The ruling on the adhan and iqamah at the grave of the deceased when he is placed in it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is the ruling on the adhan and iqamah at the grave of the deceased when he is placed in it?
A: There is no doubt that this is a religious innovation for which Allah has sent down no authority; because this was not transmitted from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) nor from his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), and all good lies in following them and treading their path, as Allah the Exalted said: [At-Tawbah: 100] And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 1718a It is agreed upon that it is authentic, and in another wording he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 1718b And he (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say in the Friday sermon: Sahih Muslim 867a Muslim narrated it in his Sahih from the hadith of Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him).
A: There is no doubt that this is a religious innovation for which Allah has sent down no authority; because this was not transmitted from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) nor from his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), and all good lies in following them and treading their path, as Allah the Exalted said:
And the first forerunners [in the faith] among the Muhajireen and the Ansar and those who followed them with good conduct - Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him
وَالسَّابِقُونَ الْأَوَّلُونَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنْصَارِ وَالَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوهُمْ بِإِحْسَانٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا عَنْهُ'A'isha reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: He who innovates things in our affairs for which there is no valid (reason) (commits sin) and these are to be rejected.
من أحدث في أمرنا هذا ما ليس منه فهو ردHe who did any act for which there is no sanction from our behalf, that is to be rejected.
من عمل عملًا ليس عليه أمرنا فهو ردThe best of the speech is embodied in the Book of Allah, and the best of the guidance is the guidance given by Muhammad. And the most evil affairs are their innovations; and every innovation is error.
أما بعد؛ فإن خير الحديث كتاب الله،، وخير الهدي هدي محمد ﷺ، وشر الأمور محدثاتها، وكل بدعة ضلالة
