Agarbatti (incense sticks) should not be lit upon the graves as it is against respect and causes discomfort to the dead; however if it is for spreading fragrance for the comfort of visitors, it should be lit beside the grave, as perfuming is praiseworthy. (Derived from Fatawa Razawiyyah, vol. 9, pp. 525,582)
9. Do not place lamps or candles etc., upon the grave because fire upon a grave is disrespectful to the dead; however if it is required for the purpose of providing light to, then candles or lamps etc. may be placed besides the grave.
