Is it permissible to read the Quran from the Mushaf for the deceased when visiting graves, and what are the recommended times of the year for visiting the deceased?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Scholars have not differentiated between reciting the Quran from the (physical copy) or by heart at graves. The times for visiting graves are not specified; the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to go out to them in the last part of the night and teach his companions what to say when visiting them, without setting a specific time.
