Kulaini has narrated through authentic chains
from Muthanna Khatib that he says: I was in Medina when the ceiling near the
grave of the Prophet in the Prophet’s mosque needed repairs. Masons used to go
up and come down. I asked Ismail bin Ammar that we should ask Ja’far Sadiq
(a.s.) if it is possible to go up to that place below which, is the holy grave
of the Prophet. The next day Ismail reported that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) says
that he did not like anyone to climb the ceiling above the holy grave of the
Prophet, because I am not satisfied that he may see something that may cause
him to lose his vision or he may see the Prophet standing up for prayer, or
sitting with some of his pure wives.
