Visiting Graves

Forbiddance of glorifying tombs and making them as mosques as it is a means to major polytheism which is worshipping someone other than Allah.This is what happened in the nation of Noah as the reason of their trap into polytheism was exaggerating in the righteous.So glorifying tombs,building over them and lighting them are forbiddened.

Visiting the graves is divided to three types:1-Legitimate visiting:to remember death and supplicate Allah for the dead person.2-Innovated visiting:visiting for the sake of worshipping and approaching Allah there by getting blessing through the dead person.3-Polytheistic visiting: visiting for asking for needs from the dead person and circumambulating around his grave .
