Q: We learnt from Shaykh Abdul-'Aziz ibn Abdullah ibn Baz that domes and other buildings on graves are impermissible. So, what is the ruling on the green dome found on the grave of the Noble Messenger (ﷺ) in Al-Madināh Al-Munawwarah?

A: There is no doubt that the Prophet (ﷺ) prohibited building on graves and cursed the Jews and the Christians for taking the graves as places of worship. He (peace be upon him) said: May Allāh curse the Jews and the Christians as they took the graves of their prophets as places of worship The Prophet (peace be upon him) also said in a Hadith that was related by Muslim in his Sahih on the authority of Jabir (may Allāh be pleased with him) that he prohibited plastering graves as well as sitting and building on them. In another version narrated by Al-Tirmidhy and others, the Prophet (ﷺ) also prohibited writing on the graves. It is prohibited to build on graves and take them as places of worship. The Prophet (ﷺ) warned us against that. His command was accepted by the scholars and they forbade people from doing that in implementation of the pure Sunnah (whatever reported from the Prophet). Nevertheless, we find people in many countries building on graves, taking them as places of worship and building domes on them as well. All this contradicts the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allāh (peace be upon him) and is counted among the gravest means that lead to Shirk (associating others with Allāh in His Divinity or worship) and exceeding proper limits with regard to the dead. Hence, no Muslim should be deceived and imitate such people in what they do because people's acts are judged by the Qur`an and the Sunnah; whatever agrees with them or one of them will be accepted, otherwise, it will be rejected. Allāh (Exalted be He) says: And in whatsoever you differ, the decision thereof is with Allāh (He is the ruling Judge).) Allāh (Glorified and Exalted be He) says as well: (And) if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allāh and His Messenger ﷻ. As regards the green dome found on the grave of the Prophet (ﷺ), it is something that was newly introduced by some of the rulers in Al-Madināh in the late ninth century. Undoubtedly, they were mistaken and what they did indicates their ignorance. This was not done, however, during the lifetime of the Prophet (ﷺ) or during the era of his Companions and their two successive generations. Rather, it took place in later centuries when ignorance was rampant, knowledge was scarce and Bid`ah (innovation in religion) was widespread. Hence, Muslims should not be deceived by this and should not take it as an example to follow. Probably those who ruled Al-Madināh and the Muslims left it that way for fear of Fitnah (temptation, trial, sedition) that might be aroused by some of the common people. They chose to avoid Fitnah because some people, who do not have insight, might have said that they made changes to the grave of the Prophet (ﷺ) and this would lead to the rise of unnecessary Fitnah that might cause great harm. Apparently, and Allāh knows best, it was left for that reason, namely, the Fitnah that could be aroused by some ignorant people who could accuse whoever removes this dome of belittling the Prophet (ﷺ) or of violating his sanctity. This is typical of those who worship the graves and who exceed the proper limits with regard to the dead. They hasten to accuse whoever calls to Tawhid (belief in the Oneness of Allāh/ monotheism) and warns against Shirk and Bid`ah of various defects and charges and says that they hate the Prophet (ﷺ) or the Awliya (pious people). They may also say that they violate the sanctity of the Prophet (ﷺ) or the like of such falsehoods. Apart from that, there is no doubt that the one who built that dome made a mistake and committed a Bid`ah and contradicted the commands of the Prophet (ﷺ) who warned against building on graves and taking them as places of worship. The first building is the house of `Aishah. The Prophet (ﷺ) was buried in the house of `Aishah as the Companions (may Allāh be pleased with them) feared the Fitnah that might arise if they buried him in Al-Baqi " (the graveyard of Madināh, near the Prophet's Mosque). Hence, they buried him in the house of `Aishah and then buried with him his two Companions: Abu Bakr and `Umar (may Allāh be pleased with them). He was not buried in the Masjid (mosque), but in the house of `Aishah. Then, when the Masjid was expanded during the era of Al-Walid Ibn `Abdul-Malik at the end of the first Hijrah century, he .....
