عَنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ كَيْفَ أَضَعُ يَدِي عَلَى قُبُورِ اَلْمُسْلِمِينَ فَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى اَلْأَرْضِ فَوَضَعَهَا عَلَيْهِ وَ هُوَ مُقَابِلُ اَلْقِبْلَةِ.
From him, from Ali ibn Ismail, from Muhammad ibn Amr, from Aban, from Abdul Rahman ibn Abi Abdullah, who said:
I asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام: "How should I place my hand on the graves of Muslims?" Imam عليه السلام gestured with his hand toward the ground and placed it on it while facing the Qiblah.
