The husband descending into his wife's grave
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And this person says: Is it correct to say that a man who has had intercourse with his wife does not descend into the grave of his relative on the morning of that day? What is the correct statement? Is it correct to say that a man who has had intercourse with his wife does not descend into the grave of his relative when she is buried on the morning of that day?
Answer:
It came in a hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that when a woman is being lowered into her grave, he said Some people interpreted "qaraf" to mean he had intercourse with his wife, because he might be fresh from having done so. It is possible that when he lowers her, he would be concerned about this matter. The point is that this came in some hadiths, and there is no indication in them of prohibition, but it is better for someone else to descend, for someone else to lower her into the grave and place her in the niche. Yes.

أن يكون قارف هذه الليلة فلا ينزل
