Matter in fact ; no. The idea of idolatry is rejected in general by Islam, but you see, another contradiction is that Muslims started to glorify these symbols too much. But in the same time, this is no ordinary symbol ; this is the prophet himself. I think idolatry in this case is, well, understood. Because muslims don't have any relics, the Prophet's grave is almost the only thing that is considered as a holly relic.
I don't like idolatry, but the grave is sealed shut because many attempts were made to exhume the grave, according to historical writings the crusades had tried to exhume it too -According to Islamic sources-.
That's why many muslims are sensitive about it.
