Reading Surah Yaaseen At The Graveyard

 


Question:

[Questioner:] I ask regarding the recitation of [Surah] Yaaseen at the grave of the deceased, is it mentioned [in any text]?
ÇáÓÄÇá:...ÇÓÃá Úä ÞÑÇÁÉ íÓ ÚäÏ ÞÈÑ ÇáãíÊ åá åí æÇÑÏÉ

Answer:

The Shaykh:
There is no mention [in the texts] of reciting anything from the Qur'aan at the grave of the deceased rather that which is mentioned is that the Prophet (Õáì Çááå Úáíå æÚáì Âáå æÓáã) when he would complete the burial of the deceased he would stand over it and say:

"Seek forgiveness for your brother and ask for his steadfastness for indeed he is now being questioned."

And regarding reciting the Faatihah or reciting Yaaseen or other than these two [Surahs] from the Qur'aan then this is not from the Sunnah as it is not mentioned from the Prophet (Õáì Çááå Úáíå æÚáì Âáå æÓáã).


ÇáÔíÎ: áÇ áã íÑÏ ÞÑÇÁÉ ÔÆò ãä ÇáÞÑÂä ÚäÏ ÞÈÑ ÇáãíÊ æÅäãÇÇáÐí æÑÏ Ãä ÇáäÈí Õáì Çááå Úáíå æÚáì Âáå æÓáã ßÇä ÅÐÇ ÝÑÛ ãä ÏÝä ÇáãíÊ æÞÝ Úáíå æÞÇá (ÇÓÊÛÝÑæÇ áÃÎíßã æÇÓÃáæÇ áå ÇáÊËÈíÊ ÝÅäå ÇáÂä íÓÃá) æÃãÇ ÞÑÇÁÉ ÇáÝÇÊÍÉ Ãæ ÞÑÇÁÉ íÓ Ãæ ÛíÑåãÇ ãä ÇáÞÑÂä ÝåÐÇ áíÓ ÈÓäÉ ÅÐÇ áã íÑÏ Úä ÇáäÈí Õáì Çááå Úáíå æÚáì Âáå æÓáã.

Shaykh Muhammad bin Saalih al-`Uthaymeen
