[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I sought permission from my Lord to seek forgiveness for my mother, but He did not grant me permission. And I sought permission from Him to visit her grave, so He granted me permission."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَبِّي فِي أَنْ أَسْتَغْفِرَ لِأُمِّي فَلَمْ يَأْذَنْ لِي وَاسْتَأْذَنْتُهُ فِي أَنْ أَزُورَ قَبْرَهَا فَأَذِنَ لِي
I sought permission to beg forgiveness for my mother, but He did not grant it to me. I sought permission from Him to visit her grave, and He granted it (permission) to me.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ اسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَبِّي أَنْ أَسْتَغْفِرَ لأُمِّي فَلَمْ يَأْذَنْ لِي وَاسْتَأْذَنْتُهُ أَنْ أَزُورَ قَبْرَهَا فَأَذِنَ لِي
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ visited his mother's grave and wept and cause those around him to weep. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said: I asked my Lord's permission to pray for forgiveness for her, but I was not allowed. I then asked His permission to visit her grave, and I was allowed. So visit graves, for they make one mindful of death. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3234)
زَارَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَبْرَ أُمِّهِ فَبَكَى وَأَبْكَى مَنْ حَوْلَهُ فَقَالَ اسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَبِّي فِي أَنْ أَسْتَغْفِرَ لَهَا فَلَمْ يَأْذَنْ لِي فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُهُ فِي أَنْ أَزُورَ قَبْرَهَا فَأَذِنَ لِي فَزُورُوا الْقُبُورَ؛ فَإِنَّهَا تُذَكِّرُكُمُ الْمَوْتَ
“The Prophet ﷺ visited the grave of his mother and wept, causing the people around him to weep. Then he said: ‘I asked my Lord for permission to seek forgiveness for her, but He did not give me permission. Then I asked my Lord for permission to visit her grave and He gave me permission. So visit the graves, for they will remind you of death.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1572)
"استأذنتُ ربِي في أنِّي أستغْفِرُ لأُمِّى، فلم يأذَنْ لي، وأستأذنتُه في أنْ أزورَ قَبْرَها فأذِنَ لي، فزوروا القُبورَ، فإِنَّها تذكِّرُكم الموْتَ ".
