ANSWER:

They hear only certain things such as the sound of shoes of those leaving the graveyard after burying them and the salam of those giving them salam.

Other scholars said that they don’t hear the salam but we give them salam as a form of Duaa and wishing them well and because we were ordered to do so!

QUESTION: If dead can not hear us then why we say Salam to them when visit graveyard? Abu bakr and Umar hear our Salam? Do they hear us that moment?Or it is only a Duaa?
