Is there a connection between trees growing on graves and the characteristics of the interred?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no basis for the notion that the growth of trees and plants on graves is an indication of the righteousness of those interred therein; rather, it is a baseless assumption. For trees grow on the graves of both the righteous and the unrighteous, and are not exclusive to the righteous.
