The Shaykh al-Islam's statement on women visiting graves

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, did the Shaykh al-Islam grant a dispensation for women to visit graves? We have heard people say so.

The Shaykh:
So let the one who says that clarify for us what establishes this, and answer for us with what indicates this regarding the matter. It is not permissible to attribute statements to scholars or lie about them. The meaning is that the Shaykh forbids women from visiting graves.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, a man underwent a surgical operation.

The Shaykh:
Usually, he presents statements, presenting the statements of scholars or the statements of those who disagree, and then an ignorant person comes along and distorts the speech, saying, "The Shaykh mentioned it," "He mentioned it in a sunnah," "He mentioned it," but he did not complete the speech. How did he mention it? He did not complete the Shaykh's speech. How did he mention this? And why did he mention it? Yes.
