Pronouncing
the adhaan and the iqaamah at the graveside

Question: What is the ruling concerning (pronouncing)
the adhaan
and the iqaamah
at the graveside after burial?
Response:
There is no doubt that this is an innovation and not from
that which Allaah has revealed. This has not been transmitted
from the Prophet (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) nor from his Companions, and all good
is derived from following their manner and path, as Allaah
(Subhaanahu
wa Ta'aala)
says:
{And
the first to embrace Islaam of the Muhaajiroon and the Ansaar
and also those who followed them exactly (in Faith). Allaah
is well-pleased with them as they are well-pleased with Him},
[Soorah
at-Towbah, Aayah
100].
And
the Prophet (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) said:
((Whoever
introduces anything into this matter of ours (i.e. Islaam)
that which is not from it, will have it rejected)),
[Saheeh
al-Bukhaaree/2697 and Saheeh
Muslim/1718].
And in another narration he (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) said:
((Anyone
who does an act which is not in agreement with us, then he
will have it rejected)), [Muslim].
And
he (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) said:
((…and
the worst of matters are the newly introduced matters (innovations),
and every innovation is misguidance,…)), reported
by Muslim
in his Saheeh from the hadeeth
of Jaabir (radhi-yallaahu
'anhu).
And
may Allaah send prayers and salutations upon our Prophet (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) and his family and his companions.
