| Examined Aya (Arabic text) | |||
| وَلَا تُصَلِّ عَلَىٰ أَحَدٍ مِّنْهُم مَّاتَ أَبَدًا وَلَا تَقُمْ عَلَىٰ قَبْرِهِ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَفَرُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَمَاتُوا وَهُمْ فَاسِقُونَ | |||
| Examined Aya (English Translation) | |||
| Nor do thou ever pray for any of them that dies, nor stand at his grave: for they rejected Allah and His Messenger and died in a state of perverse rebellion. | |||
Stages of Discussion
- Did rasulallah order us to visit qabristan or no? What were the benefits of visiting qabristan in our lives?
- Are women allowed to go to qabristan or not? what is the opinion of ulamaa of Ahulbayt?
- What was the first cemetery in Makkah which was built by the Muslims? and which great personalities are buried there?
- Why did rasullah build Jannatul Baqee? Why did Mu’awiya expand Jannatul Baqee to look after his cousin?
- What are the verses that are used against us which say that you shouldn’t stand by a grave nor do tawassul because the dead can’t replay? How do we replay to these verses?
- Why do they want to destroy the grave of rasulalllah? and whose names are written near him that they want to get rid of quickly?
- How did Ahlulbayt explain the importance of making sure that we don’t ignore their graveyard? and which of the imams of Ahulubayt when he reached karbala thought he would be able to help his father but Baqi still remembers what he had to see his father go through?
