Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is there a report that condolences are limited to only three days?
Answer:
I am not aware of any report from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), but the scholars say this because they forget, as the bereaved person forgets after three days, so you do not remind him of the calamity. This is an explanation of the reason they mentioned, not a proof; they provided an explanation.
