Explaining the wisdom behind prohibiting women from visiting graves

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q196: The questioner A.A. from Makkah asks: What is the wisdom behind women not visiting graves?
A196: They said: Because the woman is weak, and she may be affected and become distressed when she sees the grave of a relative, her son, or her father, or her brother; so she cannot control herself, and perhaps wailing may occur from her. Also: she may be feared for regarding the open sinners; for if she visits the graves, the open sinners may transgress against her, or deceive her. So for this reason, the woman does not visit the graves.
