Question: Is it permissible to enter an empty grave and make videos?
Answer: For admonition, the Quran and Hadith are sufficient for us. Therefore, there is no need to make pictures and videos of graves to convey religious messages. However, if someone makes pictures or videos of a grave, there is no harm in it because it is not the image of a living being. But it should be noted that some people show graves as if there is punishment happening inside or show miracles; such actions are not permissible because they are false. Even if something strange is seen in a grave, it should be kept hidden because we do not know the true nature of it. Often, magical acts are performed with graves to mislead people.
