Chapter on what is said when visiting graves and whether the dead hear the words of the living
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 3352 — on what is said when visiting graves
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ أَتَى الْمَقْبَرَةَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْمَقْبَرَةِ فَقَالَ: ((سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ دَارَ قَوْمٍ مُؤْمِنِينَ! وَإِنَّا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ بِكُمْ لَاحِقُونَ … )) الْحَدِيثَ
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to a graveyard and, greeting them with peace, recited this supplication: "Peace be upon you, O abode of a believing people! And indeed, if Allah wills, we shall join you." (O people of this house who have faith! Peace be upon you, if Allah wills, we too are to meet you.)
