The Ruling on Women Visiting Graves
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, is visiting graves permissible?
The Shaykh : Of course, visiting graves is not merely permissible, but it is recommended.
The questioner : And for women?
The Shaykh : And for women, provided the well-known condition for women is met: that they be covered and wearing the Shari'ah-prescribed outer garment. Then they should not sit by the grave or the graves; rather, they should only offer the salam and take the lesson from this visit, and then return to their homes.
