Aulia visitation

Ibn Kathir writes: Ibn Asakir narrated in biography of Amr Ibn Jamah: “A young person used to come to the Mosque for his prayers. One day a woman with bad intentions invited him to her house. When he was in her house, he recited a verse from the Qur’an (إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّقَوْاْ إِذَا مَسَّهُمْ طَـٰئِفٌ مِّنَ ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنِ تَذَكَّرُواْ فَإِذَا هُم مُّبْصِرُونَ) loudly and collapsed and died from the fear of Allah. The people prayed the funeral prayer and buried him. ‘Umar (may Allah be well pleased with him) asked: ‘Where is that young individual who used to come to the Mosque for his prayers?’ They replied: ‘He passed away and we have buried him’. ‘Umar (may Allah be well pleased with him) went to his grave and called out to him and recited a verse from the Holy Qur’an: ‘But for him who fears to stand before his Lord there are two Paradises’ (Sura al-Rahman, 46) The young man replied from his grave ‘Indeed Allah has given me two Paradises’ [Tafsir Ibn Kathir Volume 006, Page No. 496, Under 7:202]

Ibrahim Ibn Shayban said: “One year I went on a pilgrimage then I came to Madinah and approached the grave of the prophet(ﷺ) and said Salam to him. I heard, coming from inside the room, the reply:”Wa’alaikum al-salam.” Abu Nu’aim in Al-Targhib (#102), Ibn Jawzi al-Qayyim in Muthir al-Gharam (pg. 486-498), Ibn Taimiyya in Iatida’ al-Sirat al-Mustaqim (pg. 373 to 374)

Imam Dārimī Relates from Abu al-Jawza’ Aws bin ‘Abdullah: The people of Medina were in the grip of a severe famine. They complained to ‘A’ishah (about their terrible condition). She told them to go towards the Prophet’s grave and open a window in the direction of the sky so that there is no curtain between the sky and the grave. The narrator says they did so. Then it started raining heavily; even the lush green grass sprang up (everywhere) and the camels had grown so fat (it seemed) they would burst out due to the over piling of blubber. So the year was named as the year of greenery and plenty.(Sunan Darimi Volume 001, Page 227, Hadith Number 093 / Ibn-ul-Jawzī in al-Wafā’ bi-ahwāl-il-mustafā (2:801))

Hadrat Aisha (ra) narrates: Whenever I entered the house in which Prophet (ﷺ) and my father (i.e. Abu Bakr ra) are buried,I used to take off my sheet (from head) thinking that it’s only my father and husband (whom I am visiting), however By Allah! When Umar (ra) got buried with them, I never went inside without being fully covered, this is because of being ashamed of Umar (ra) [Musnad Ahmed bin Hanbal, Volume No. 6, Page No. 202]

Note: Even after the dismissal of Hazarth Umar R.A, Hadrat Aisha R.A fully covered herself as if he is alive.

Narrated AbuHurayrah: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If any one of you greets me, Allah returns my soul to me and I respond to the greeting. Book 4, Number 2036: Abu Dawood.,Riyadh us Saliheen 1/255, Hadith # 1402,Qadhi Shawkani -Nayl al Awtar 5/164

Narrated By AbudDarda :Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Invoke many blessings on me on Friday for it is witnessed. The angels are present on it, and no one will invoke a blessing on me without his blessing being submitted to me till he stops.” I asked whether that applied also after his death, and he replied, “Allah has prohibited the Earth from consuming the bodies of the prophets; so Allah’s prophet is alive and given provision.” Narrated AbudDarda Al Tirmdhi 1366 ,Sunan Ibn Maja Volume 001: Hadith Number 1626,Abu Dawud Book 002, Hadith Number 1526
 
Imam Dhahabi (rah) narrates: Once there was a drought in Samarqand, People tried their best, some said Salat al Istisqa but still it did not rain, A renowned righteous man known as Salih came to the Qadhi and said: In my opinion you along with your public should visit the grave of Imam Bukhari (rah), His grave is located in Khartank, We should (go near the Qabr) and ask for rain, Allah might give us rain then, The Qadhi said Yes to his opinion and then he along with the people went towards (the Qabr) and then He made a dua along with the people and people started to cry near the grave and started to make him a Waseela (i.e. Imam Bukhari). Allah Ta’ala (immediately) sent rainclouds. All people stayed in Khartank for about 7 days, none of them wanted to go back to Samarqand although the distance between Samarqand and Khartank was only 3 miles [Siyar al A’lam wa al Nubalah, Volume 012, Page No. 469] .Imam Bulqini also declares this tradition “sound” in his Fatawa. Imam Subki confirms Hakim’s authentication in [Shifa-us-siqam fi ziyarat khayr-il-anam Page No. 120-1]

When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
