Symposium 66

Words on Visiting Graves

Anwar: Salam ‘Alaykom!

Hasan: Alaykom As-Salam Wa Rahmatollah Wa Barakatoh!

Anwar: Today, I would like to ask you about visiting the graves!

Hasan: All right. This is one of the issues that Shi’a are concerned with; we go to visit the graves of the Prophet and the Imams (PBUT), as we also tend to build shrines for them and actually be available all around them. It is, in fact, part of the orders of the Ahl Al-Bait (PBUT).

Anwar: Some prohibited it. How do you respond?
