Abstract
Attending the graves of the dead and, in other words, the dead, both righteous and corrupt, is one of the most controversial issues in Islamic jurisprudence. In such a way that different Islamic sects are sometimes placed together and the Imamiyyah and Sunni jurists have adopted a single opinion in line with each other; Although a part of the public has separated their way from other co-religionists here, they have moved towards the sanctity of the mentioned act and regarding the pilgrim as an idolater and an infidel. Of course, this does not mean that the fatwas of the jurists are dualistic, but the result of the detailed research and search in the jurisprudential and even theological sources of Imami and public thinkers shows the existence of four different theories in the debate. The writers, using descriptive-analytical methods and using library sources, think that the famous Imami and public jurists are right; it means that visiting the graves is permissible and desirable, but as long as there are no unnecessary actions and it is enough to attend the graves, read the Qur'an and supplication, and ask for forgiveness for the dead.
