In the Name of Allāh, the Entirely Gracious, the Exclusively Merciful

📩 Question:

The questioner asks: What is the ruling on visiting domes (built on graves) on the fifteenth day of Sha’ban and putting Bakhoor (aromatic woodchips) on it?

📝 The answer:

This action is impermissible, from the newly introduced affairs and heresies and they may fall into Shirk such as seeking help from other than Allah, and diverting worship to other than Him (جل وعلا)

And with regards to putting Bakhoor on it, then if it is done out of gaining nearness by it to the person in the grave, then this is Shirk with Allah (جل وعلا). As for if he is worshipping Allah by venerating the grave by placing Bakhoor on it, then it is from the newly introduced affairs and heresies, and Allah knows best.
