Question:
May Allah send you well, Honorable Shaykh. A questioner says: A relative of ours passed away (may Allah have mercy on him), and I fulfilled the duty of offering condolences after the funeral prayer. However, my mother orders me to go to their home during the days of condolence. He asks: Should I go, or should I obey her?
Answer:
No, it is not permissible to gather for condolences; it is not permissible to gather for condolences. Rather, one offers condolences to the bereaved in the home, in the mosque, on the road, or at the cemetery, and the matter ends. What is the need for a gathering? Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh,
