Lectures in the graveyard

Q: In my country, many people are talking about bid'ah. Can you explain to me about this?

1. Lectures in the graveyard.

2. Using microphone and speakers for Azaan?

A:

1. It was not the general practice of the Sahaabah and Taabieen to give lectures in the graveyard. Hence this practice should be discontinued.

2. No. It is not a bid'ah. It does not enter under the definition of bid'ah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
