Crying for a deceased husband
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the sisters says: I cry a lot about my husband, who passed away about two months ago. Does this crying affect my life and the life of my deceased husband?
Answer:
Crying does not make a person sinful; rather, it is mercy. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wept when his son Ibrahim died, and he said:Sahih al-Bukhari 1303. So crying for the deceased is an act of mercy, and a person is not to be blamed for it. Yes.

The eyes are shedding tears and the heart is grieved, and we will not say except what pleases
العين تدمع والقلب يحزن، ولا نقول إلا ما يرضي
