The answers on Hawramani.com are based on the research of Ikram Hawramani in the Quran, hadith, scholarly works and respected fatwa sources. You can view Ikram Hawramani's credentials on the about page. Please note that we do not issue fatwas, we only compile the opinions of respected scholars (even when a fatwa is not explicitly cited) to make their opinions accessible to English-speaking Muslims. If an answer does not cite fatwas, please feel free to leave a comment asking for a fatwa citation and we will update the answer as soon as possible to include fatwas.

IslamQA: Is it permitted to recite Quran on graves?

What are the etiquettes of visiting graves? on two separate Islamic websites one says it is permissible to recite Quran and on another it says this is not permissible.

The etiquette is to treat the grave with respect, as if you are dealing with a living and hearing person, such as by saying salam when you approach the grave. Reciting Quran on graves is permitted according to the mainstream scholarly opinion (which I prefer).
