The ruling on placing Palm Leaves of Palm Trees on the Grave of the Deceased


Question :

What is the ruling on placing palm leaves of palm trees and green Indian figs on the grave of the deceased?


Answer:

This is not permissible. The Prophet's placing two palm branches on the grave of some people who were being punished and whom he was informed about, this was something specifically for the Prophet. Thus, it is not permissible that anything be placed on the graves; not the palm branches of the palm trees or anything else from the trees. And success is with Allâh.
