The obligation toward a mother who was attached to shrines after her death

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: My mother passed away, and she was attached to shrines; she would honor them, visit them, and love them. I do not know if she attributed to them a type of worship. When I advised her, she would laugh and say, "I know that Allah is the one worthy of worship, who has no partner, but I love them intensely." What is my obligation after her death?

The Shaykh:
It is obligatory for you to make du'a' for her and seek forgiveness for her. Yes.

The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is meant by the statement of some scholars that "action is a condition"?

The Shaykh:
Unless she was attached to graves, calling upon their occupants and asking them for her needs. In that case, she is a disbeliever; do not make du'a' for her and do not seek forgiveness for her.
