Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 8078 — on What Has Been Reported Regarding Images
عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ بَعَثَ عَامِلَ شُرْطَتِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَتَدْرِي عَلَى مَا أَبْعَثُكَ عَلَى مَا بَعَثَنِي عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أَنْحِتَ كُلَّ يَعْنِي صُورَةً وَأَنْ أُسَوِّيَ كُلَّ قَبْرٍ
Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that he sent an officer from his police and said to him: Do you know for what mission I am sending you? For the same task upon which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me: that I erase every image and level every grave.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The issue related to the grave has already been discussed in the Book of Funerals (Kitab al-Jana'iz).
