Narated Abdullah Ibn Umar:Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said: who ever visits my grave after my death it is same he has visited me in my life.(Tabrani Volume 012: Hadith Number 406
,Bayhaqi Shu’ab ul Iman Volume 003: Hadith Number 489 )

Imam Ibn Quduma (rah) said: It is recommended to do Ziyarah of Prophet’s grave as it is narrated by Daraqutni with his Isnaad from Ibn Umar (ra) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whosoever performs the Hajj after my death then he should visit my grave because It is as If he has visited me during my life. And he also narrated (another hadith) that Whosoever visits my grave then my intercession becomes Wajib for him [Imam Ibn Quduma in al-Mughni, Volume No. 5, Page No. 381]

Qadhi Iyaad (rah) said in his magnificent Ash-Shifa- Chapter: The order of visiting the grave of Prophet (ﷺ) and the Virtue of the one visiting it and sending Salam.It should be known that visiting the grave of Prophet (ﷺ) is “Masnoon” [Well known] for all Muslims and they have “IJMA” over it, It has such a virtue that It has been prescribed to us as it comes in the hadith of Ibn Umar (ra) [i.e. whosoever visits my grave then my intercession becomes Wajib for him][Qadhi Iyaad in Ash-Shifa, Volume No.2, Page No. 53]

It is attributed to ‘Abdullāh bin Mas‘ūd that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) is reported to have said:My life is blissful for you because you hear traditions from people and relate them to others and my death is also blissful for you because your deeds will be presented to me. If I see the virtues prevail, I will be grateful to Allah, and if I see the vices prevail, I will pray for your forgiveness from Allah.(Haythamī in Majma‘-uz-zawā’id (9:24),Qādī ‘Iyād in ash-Shifā (1:19)
,Suyūtī  in al-Khasā’is-ul-kubrā (2:281)


As it is reported by ‘Amr bin Shu‘ayb that his grandfather says: we were present in the company of the holy Prophet (ﷺ) when messengers from Hawāzin tribe came and said: O Muhammad! We belong to the same origin and tribe, and the trouble we are facing is not hidden from you, therefore, have mercy on us. The holy Prophet (ﷺ) replied: opt one of the two choices; either take away your property and wealth or have your women freed. They opted for their women and children. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) added: as far as my share and the share of ‘Abd-ul-Muttalib and his children (in the spoils) is concerned, I have already given it to you. But when I have performed the noon prayer, you should all stand up and say:“Through the means of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) we seek help for our women and children from believers (or Muslims)”
The narrator says that when people had finished their prayer, they repeated the same words as the Prophet (ﷺ) had advised them. (Nasā’ī, Sunan, book of hibah (gifts) 6:262-3)

It is narrated by Anas bin Malik. He said: When the mother of ‘Ali bin Abu Talib — Fatimah bint Asad bin Hashim — died, Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) called on her and sat down by the head of the bed and said, “O dear mother, may Allah have mercy on you. After my mother, you were the one I regarded as my mother. When I was hungry you fed me to the point of saturation while you yourself remained hungry. Then you helped me put on clothes and instead of eating yourself, you gave me nice things to eat. You did all this for Allah’s pleasure and for a good reward in the Hereafter.” Then he (the Prophet) commanded to bathe her three times.When camphor water was brought, Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) poured some water into his hands. Then Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) took off his shirt and clothed her with it and used his own sheet of cloth as her coffin.Then Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) sent for Usamah bin Zayd, Abu Ayyub al-Ansari and ‘Umar bin al-Khattab and the negro slave to dig up the grave. So they dug her grave. When they reached near the land, Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) dug it up and drew the soil out with his own hands. When he finished, Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) entered and lay down in (the grave), and said, “It is Allah Who controls life and death, and He is Ever living and will never die. (O Allah,) forgive my mother—Fatimah bint Asad— and help her answer properly at the time of questioning and through the mediation of Your Prophet (Muhammad) and the former prophets, make her grave capacious. Surely You are infinitely Merciful.” Then he repeated, “God is Great” four times (i.e. led the funeral prayer). Then he, ‘Abbas and Abu Bakr as-Siddiq lowered her into the grave.

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)
