There is not one single grave upon the face of this earth that

contains sacredness or blessings, so those people who intentionally

head there in order to seek sacredness and blessings have already
fallen into the acts of bidfiah and shirk. Within Islām, there is no

authorized intentional travel to visit (with the purpose of fiibādah)

specific graves, such as those of walīys, kyais, ḥabib and others
with the intention of seeking sacredness and blessings and fiibādah

there. This matter is forbidden and not permitted within Islām,

because these deeds are bidfiah and shirk and a means leading to
shirk.

“It is not permitted to be journey (with the purpose of fiibādah)

except to three masājid: that is this masjid (Masjid an-Nabawī),
Masjidil Ḥarām and Masjidil Aqṣā”.

As for the courtesy of journeying to a grave, the Muslims are

advised to journey to the funerals of Muslims for saying salām and
making dufiā√ in order that their sins be forgiven and that they

receive mercy from Allāh .
