حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ هَانِئٍ عَنْ مَسْرُوقِ بْنِ الأَجْدَعِ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ كُنْتُ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ فَزُورُوا الْقُبُورَ فَإِنَّهَا تُزَهِّدُ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَتُذَكِّرُ الآخِرَةَ
