Question:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, says: I visited the martyrs of Uhud with my family, and my mother and my sister were with me. His question is: I visited the martyrs of Uhud with my family, and my mother and my sister were with me; do my mother and my sister fall under the hadith prohibiting the visiting of graves?

Answer:
Yes, it includes all women. Your mother, your sister, your maternal aunt, and your grandmother. They all fall under the prohibition. But since you did not intend this and you were ignorant of it, we ask Allah to forgive you. Yes.
