Graves is it allowed to visit graves and sit down around the
grave and recite the Quran. First of all, the messenger of allah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said is called Hadith Jedediah, when
you go to a grave place something green on the grave, everything
living such as greenery meaning something alive, like a branch,
anything that a plant of sorts that was alive while it's green,
it is praising Allah in its own way. We don't hear it obviously.
But it is praising Allah in its own way. So while it's green,
while it's praising Allah because of the praise of Allah, if that
person is suffering anything, then perhaps he hopes the prophets I
sent him said that some of the punishment will decrease because
the Quran it's the remembrance of Allah. And if the person isn't
being punished, then like we can imagine no, because the prophesy
centum said that it would decrease the punishment, then they would
enjoy the remembrance of Allah and benefit from that remembrance
because of that hadith they made the scholars made the PS so the
they say if that's the case, if the testes via the remembrance of
God of the plants brings benefit, imagine then the Quran right so
you are bringing benefit to the person in their grave. Remember,
we don't believe that people just disappear. When they die. They
don't just disappear into nothingness. They have an
existence that is known to Allah. We don't know what that existence
is like, but they can benefit and what are some of the things they
can benefit? When you pray for them. They benefit when you visit
them, they can hear you when you visit them, and they could benefit
and they would love to hear the recitation of the Quran. Let's
take a look at the Hanafi sorcier asuran Bolelli what does he say?
It is recommended to recite yes seen the narrates because of what
was been related that whoever enters the grave and recites yes
seen and whatever it is happening in the grave at that time. It
eases the burden we don't know what's happening to the world of
souls at that time. And he gets the house Senate and what's in it
and to sit around the graves he says I little company here is not
discouraged to sit down you don't have to say the recitation
standing right you don't have to recite standing so around the
grave you can sit and on the grave to recite however, he says it's
discouraged if you're not reciting then it's discouraged to sit on
the grave so to sit literally on the grave and recite the Quran on
the grave is recommend us to have the recitation is most to have the
sitting on the grave is not discouraged is permitted. So
forget sitting around the grave you sit on the grave itself. Let's
go to the chef a source we go to the book imagine walk by mm and
know it is recommended for the visitor to say a Saddam white
equal to all those in the grave and to pray for the one he visits.
And for everybody in the grave. You should not just make dua for
the one person leave everybody else Imagine having food available
for everyone, but you only feed one person No. And don't just make
dua for everybody. It doesn't cost you anything. It's no hardship in
that. So you should make make sure you make dua for the person and
then a general dua for everybody else and make dua from what's
found in the sun. And it is Mr. hob recommended to recite from the
Quran what is easy to recite and after he resets Quran makes
dropped for them, he managed to have He himself said this and the
Imams of the Chevys are all agree on this one will satisfy any set
in his book, the manners of visiting grapes, the visitor of
the grave can sit down, and he can stand when he wants to stand he
can stand and if he wants to sit he can sit either way. It's no
different than how you would visit somebody alive. You can visit
there them and just stand or just pass them by or sit down. All of
that is fine and good. The next pneus is from the humbly school of
thought reciting on the grave is not discouraged. And in the
graveyard This is the dominant opinion in the school. He cites
here that the scholars all recommend they they preferred
recitation they consider Mr. hub because of cover LGD that what is
the Jedi that the branch the prophesy? Saddam said go and put
something green like a branch of something because the robber peace
be upon him said if the person is suffering in their grave that they
will be alleviated the suffering as long as this branch remain
green because the branch is always in remembrance of Allah living
things are always in remembrance of Allah in some way shape and
form. We don't know it but they are so if that's the case, then
recited put on his more preferable
