Visiting Graves and Using Them as Mosques

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad cursed those who visit graves and use them as mosques, or put torches on them.

Ibn Abbbas narrated: "Allah's Messenger cursed the women who visit the graves, and those who use them as Masajid and put torches on them".
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُحَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ لَعَنَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ زَائِرَاتِ الْقُبُورِ وَالْمَتَّخِذِينَ عَلَيْهَا الْمَسَاجِدَ وَالسُّرُجَ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَعَائِشَةَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ ‏.‏ وَأَبُو صَالِحٍ هَذَا هُوَ مَوْلَى أُمِّ هَانِئٍ بِنْتِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَاسْمُهُ بَاذَانُ وَيُقَالُ بَاذَامُ أَيْضًا

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad cursed those who visit graves and use them as mosques, or put torches on them. This hadith is a warning to Muslims not to do these things, which are considered disrespectful to the dead. Visiting graves is allowed in Islam but it should be done with respect and reverence for the deceased. It is forbidden to make a mosque out of a grave or place any kind of light upon it, such as candles or lamps. Doing so would be seen as an act of disrespect towards the dead person buried there. Additionally, this hadith serves as a reminder that we should not forget about death and our own mortality; instead we should strive to live our lives in accordance with Islamic teachings so that when our time comes we can meet Allah with good deeds in our record books.
