Chapter on the prohibition of taking mosques over graves
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 3341 — on the prohibition of taking mosques over
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي لَمْ يَقُمْ مِنْهُ: ((لَعَنَ اللَّهُ الْيَهُودَ وَالنَّصَارَى فَإِنَّهُمُ اتَّخَذُوا قُبُورَ أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ مَسَاجِدَ))، قَالَتْ: وَلَوْلَا ذَلِكَ أُبْرِزَ قَبْرُهُ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ خُشِيَ أَنْ يُتَّخَذَ مَسْجِدًا
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said during the illness from which he could not recover: "May Allah curse the Jews and the Christians, they made the graves of their prophets places of prostration." Then Sayyida said: If there had not been this fear, the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) would also have been made prominent (outside the house).
