What is the comment on the saying of some groups who exaggerate concerning the awliya' (saints) that the hadith about leveling graves pertains to the graves of Jews and Christians, and that their building around the grave or roofing over it is not forbidden, citing the grave of the Prophet (peace be upon him) as evidence, and their argument that "the horn of Satan" mentioned in the hadith is Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab al-Najdi, whom they and his followers described as Rawafid (rejectionists) for expanding the scope of shirk (polytheism)?

The text of the Hadith: "Do not leave any image without effacing it, nor any elevated grave without leveling it." It indicates that the Sunnah is not to raise the grave too much above the ground, but rather to raise it about a span and flatten it. Building over graves is disliked because it is a means to shirk (polytheism) and fitnah (temptation). The claim that this command is specific to the graves of Jews and Christians is false, for the command is general, and its generality is confirmed by the Hadith of Fadalah ibn Ubayd. Moreover, saying that would mean that effacing images is specific to them, which is false. As for the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his two companions, walls were built around it during the expansion of the mosque so that it would not appear within the mosque, lest the common people pray towards it and the ignorant be tempted. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not legislate building over graves, neither for a mosque nor for a shrine. As for the Hadith "There are earthquakes and tribulations, and from there emerges the horn of Satan," it includes every elevated place on earth relative to the Hijaz in the direction of the East, and it is not used as evidence to condemn the call of Sheikh Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab.
