Fatwas: Green Branch on Graves
Dr. Ali Fakhri, Secretary of the Fatwa Department at the Egyptian Dar Al-Ifta, stated that placing a branch of a green tree on a deceased person's grave with the intention of alleviating their suffering is supported by the prophetic tradition. He explained that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) planted green plants on two graves in hopes of reducing their punishment. He emphasized that this practice is permissible, provided there is no belief that it is an obligatory act or something that must be done. He clarified that the primary means of benefiting the deceased are supplication and charity. Additionally, he pointed out that planting trees or placing green plants near graves is considered acceptable as long as the intention is to pray for mercy. It is not a substitute for good deeds, and the blanket prohibition of such acts is not correct if the action is based on a legitimate religious basis and performed with proper conduct without extremism.
