1390. Narrated 'Aishah رضي الله عنها: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ in his fatal illness said, "Allāh cursed the Jews and the Christians, for they built places of worship at the graves of their Prophets." And if that had not been the case, then the Prophet's grave would have been made prominent before the people. So, (the Prophet ﷺ) was afraid, or the people were afraid that his grave might be taken as a place for worship.
Narrated Abū Bakr bin 'Ayyāsh رضي الله عنه: Sufyān At-Tammār told me that he had seen the grave of the Prophet ﷺ, elevated and convex.
Narrated 'Urwa: When the wall (around the graves of the Prophet ﷺ, Abū Bakr and Umar رضي الله عنهما) collapsed during the caliphate of Al-Walīd bin 'Abdul Mālik; the people started repairing it, and a foot appeared to them. The people got scared and thought that it was the foot of the Prophet ﷺ. No one could be found who could tell them about it till I ('Urwa) said to them, "By Allāh, this is not the foot of the Prophet ﷺ, but it is the foot of 'Umar رضي الله عنه."
