Is it permissible for a woman to visit graves and follow funeral processions?

The questioner : The Companions witnessed the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Also, from the form of his prohibition and command, one can infer obligation, recitation, and recommendation. So the statement is correct, and we are not bound by what is not...

The Shaykh : Umm Atiyyah.

The questioner : The extent, there is no doubt in its apparent meaning. Yes.

The Shaykh : Yes, first, it is possible that she understood from the circumstances that it was not a strict obligation, or it is said that she assumed this, and assumption is not a basis for judgment, but the other evidence indicates that the prohibition was for the sake of the default ruling,

The questioner : Do not imitate. Perhaps she exaggerated the grave, this is for exaggeration, for the woman who frequently visits

The Shaykh : The Shaykh al-Islam (may Allah have mercy on him) responded to this in the book of Fatwas and mentioned eight aspects or more that visiting graves by a woman, even once, is forbidden, and he said that the hadith was narrated with "visiting women" and "visitors." So we take "visiting women" because it is more cautious. Even though the active participle comes for mere attribution, not for exaggeration, as He said in the Qur'an Is what is negated the exaggeration in oppression or the essence of oppression? The essence of oppression, no, no, no, it is general.
