أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى بْنِ مُجَاشِعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
زَارَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَبْرَ أُمِّهِ فَبَكَى وَأَبْكَى مَنْ حَوْلَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «اسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَبِّي أَنْ أَزُورَ قَبْرَهَا فَأَذِنَ لِي فَاسْتَأْذَنَتْهُ أَنْ أَسْتَغْفِرَ لَهَا فَلَمْ يَأْذَنْ لِي فَزُورُوَا الْقُبُورَ فَإِنَّهَا تُذَكِّرُكُمُ الْمَوْتَ»

✧ The Prophet ﷺ visited the grave of his mother and wept, and made those around him weep. Then he said, "I asked my Lord for permission to visit her grave, and He granted me permission. Then I asked Him for permission to seek forgiveness for her, but He did not grant me permission. So visit graves, for they remind you of death."
