Islam doesn't accept adorning tombs with any aesthetics. This should be the reason for it.

His past good deeds during his earthly sojourn are what will help him in the afterlife. No mausoleum, no vault, no whatsoever will be of benefit to him. One needs not to visit the grave of Yaradua to remember him. His memories are already ingrained in the hearts of millions of people.

Look at this picture of the resting place of King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, the Saudi King who died about a decade ago.

While it's true that some people decorate tombs, it's important to remember that this practice does not align with Islamic teachings. Just because it is done in some cultures does not make it permissible in Islam.

Islam emphasizes simplicity, especially concerning graves and tombs. For instance, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

"Do not make my grave a site of festivity" (Sunan Abu Dawood, Book 21, Hadith 2042).

Additionally, the Prophet (peace be upon him) instructed:

"Do not sit on graves and do not pray facing them" (Sahih Muslim, Book 4, Hadith 2117).

Moreover, in the Quran, Allah says:

"Then We made you successors in the land after them so that We may observe how you will do" (Quran 10:14).

These teachings underscore that graves should not be a place of excessive adornment or a site of rituals that may lead to shirk (associating partners with Allah). Therefore, the simplicity of the late president's burial tomb aligns with these Islamic principles.

You guys like putting mouth for things that are not just your business. The former president could have said this is how he wanted to be buried nothing special, it's not like money was the problem.
Every man get his dieing wish.
