Apostle of God only passed by a Jewish woman over whom lamentation was being made, and he said, 'Verily these are lamenting over her, and she is certainly being punished in her grave.'"'—Muslim, Al Bukhárí.
On Visiting Graves
It is related from Buraidah that, 'The Apostle of God said, "I prohibited you from visiting graves, but (now) visit them; and I prohibited you from meat which had been offered in sacrifice above the space of three days, but (now) retain it as long as you like; and I prohibited you from unfermented wine, except in a leathern bag, but now drink it from all kinds of drinking vessels; but do not drink anything intoxicating."'—Muslim.
It is related from Abú Hurairah that he said, 'The Prophet visited his mother's tomb and wept, causing those around him to weep also. And he said, "I sought permission of my Lord to pray for forgiveness for her, but permission was not given me; and I asked His permission to visit her tomb, and permission was given me. Therefore visit the tombs, for they remind of death."'—Muslim.
