Question

What is impermissible about reading Salaami, singing and laying a green cloth over a learnered scholar? As a recenty Hajji I know this not done at even the Prophets Grave, we are only allowed to convety our salaams.

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

In order for us to respond to your query, explain the procedure of “Salaami” and how it is conducted. Also, elaborate on laying down a green cloth over a grave.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
