Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
It is permissible to place a memorial plaque on the top of the grave only so that the grave may not become desolate and trampled. So even in this case only name and address are allowed to be written. And if there is no such fear, then it will not be permissible to place a memorial plaque. Because- in that case it will be considered as waste. It is makrooh to write a verse on a memorial plaque, so it is makrooh, and there is no mention in the Qur'an-Hadith of any benefit to the deceased. 3538211233
