The Etiquette of Visiting the Prophet’s ( God blessing and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad ) Grave.الدعاء الذي يقال عند قبر الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم

After the visitor finishes his prayers, he should approach the Prophet’s Grave without pushing his way through the crowds of hurting others in trying to reach it. When he reaches the Grave, he should direct his face toward him, with his back to the Qiblah and say, ‘Peace be upon you, O the Messenger of Allah. Peace be upon you, O the chosen one of Allah’s creation. Peace be upon you, O the beloved one of Allah. Peace be upon you, O the chief of the Messengers. He should invoke blessings and peace upon the Prophet ( God blessing and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad ) and implore Allah, the Most High to accept the Prophet’s intercession for him. He should implore Allah to forgive his sins. He should express his repentance and allegiance to Allah the Most High. He should voice full commitment and obedience to the teaching of the Qur’an and the Sunnah of Muhammad ( God blessing and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad ) Then he should supplicate to Allah for whatever is good in this life and in the life of the Hereafter for his parents, family and Muslims worldwide. He should greet and bless the Prophet ( God blessing and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad ) on behalf of those who asked him to do so. After that, he should move a yard to the right and offer his greetings to Abu Bakr, the companion, successor and confidant of the Prophet ( God blessing and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad ) He should implore Allah to reward him according to the best of his deeds for the welfare of the Ummah of Muhammad. Then he should move further another yard in the same direction and offer greetings to Omar, the Commander of the Faithful who led Islam and Muslims to victory. He should implore Allah to reward him according to the best of his deeds for the prosperity of the people of Muhammad. It was reported that whenever Omar’s son returned from his travels, he entered the Mosque and faced the Grave saying ‘O Prophet of Allah Peace be upon you. O Abu Bakr, peace be upon you, O father, peace be upon you’. Ahmed, Abu Dawoud, and Al Bukhari reported in an authentic Hadith with a sound chain of authorities that the Prophet ( God blessing and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad )actually hears the greetings sent to him and returns these greetings with similar ones. In this respect the Prophet ( God blessing and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad ) stated: “When any Muslim sends greetings to me, Allah returns my soul to me so that I may respond to his greetings.”

الدعاء الذي يقال عند قبر الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم

إذا فرغت من الصلاة – تحية المسجد – اتجه إلى القبر الشريف ، مستقبلاً له ومستدبراً القبلة ، فتسلم على رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قائلاً : ” السلام عليك يا رسول الله ، السلام عليك يا نبي الله ، السلام عليك يا خيرة خلق الله من خلقه ، السلام عليه يا خير خلق الله ، السلام عليك يا حبيب الله ، السلام عليك يا سيّد المرسلين ، السلام عليك يا رسول رب العالمين ، السلام عليك يا قائد الغُر المحجلين. أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله ، وأشهد أنك عبده ورسوله وأمينه وخيرته من خلقه . وأشهد أنك قد بلغت الرسالة ، وأديت الأمانة ، ونصحت الأمة ، وجاهدت في الله حق جهاده ”

ثم تتأخر نحو ذراع إلى الجهة اليمنى ، فتسلم على أبي بكر الصديق ، ثم تتأخر أيضاً نحو ذراع . فتسلم على عمر الفاروق رضي الله عنهما ، انتهى.

الشاهد :

اللهم صلِ وسلم على نبينا وحبيبنا محمد.
