Question:
What is the ruling on reciting Surat Ya-Sin over the grave of the deceased?
Answer:
Nothing is recited over graves: not Ya-Sin, nor anything else. Ya-Sin is only recited for the dying person before he dies; it is recommended to recite it for the dying person before he dies, based on a hadith that was reported regarding this. As for after burial, nothing is recited at the graves, neither Ya-Sin nor anything else; nothing is recited there, and no prayer is offered there. All of this is religious innovation.
