عن أبي هريرة قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لا تجعلوا بيوتكم قبورا ولا تجعلوا قبري عيدا وصلوا علي فإن صلاتكم تبلغني حيث كنتم (سنن أبي داود #2042)

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “Do not make your homes into graveyards (i.e. enliven your homes with righteous a’maal e.g. salaah, reciting the Qur’aan Majeed, etc, so that your homes do not become like the graveyard which is void of a’maal), and do not make my grave a place of festivity, and recite durood upon me, for certainly your durood reaches me (through the malaa’ikah) from wherever you may be.”
