سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ وَضْعِ الرَّجُلِ يَدَهُ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ مَا هُوَ وَ لِمَ صَنَعَ فَقَالَ صَنَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَلَى ابْنِهِ بَعْدَ النَّضْحِ قَالَ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ كَيْفَ أَضَعُ يَدِي عَلَى قُبُورِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ وَ وَضَعَهَا عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ رَفَعَهَا وَ هُوَ مُقَابِلُ الْقِبْلَةِ.

3. Humayd ibn Ziyad has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Muhammad ibn Sama‘ah from more than one person from Aban from ‘Abd al- Rahman ibn abu ‘Abd Allah who has said the following: “I once asked him (the Imam) (a.s.), about one’s placing his hand over the grave, its significance and why it is done. He (the Imam) said, ‘The Messenger of Allah had done so over the grave of his son after sprinkling water.’ He (the narrator) has said that I then asked, ‘How should I place my hand over the graves of the Muslims?’ He (the Imam) pointed with his hand, placed it on the ground, then raised it while he was facing al-Qiblah (al-Ka‘bah).’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
