Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is what some of the male relatives of the deceased do, namely their absence from work for a period of time, considered a form of mourning (iḥdād) for the deceased?
Answer:
What do the men do? The absence of the deceased's male relatives from work for a period of time is considered… Is it their job or do they have their own business? In any case, they should not leave their work, whether it is their own business or their official job, because this is a type of mourning that is not prescribed. However, if it is an official job, it is not permissible for them; it is forbidden for them, because this means they are taking the salary without performing the work. Yes.
