Question:
We have Abu Faisal with us, please go ahead, Abu Faisal. Peace be upon you. It seems there is a connection, please go ahead, Abu Faisal. Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. May Allah keep you in good health. May Allah give you life, please go ahead. We want to speak to the Shaykh, may Allah reward you with good. Please go ahead. Please go ahead, Abu Faisal. May Allah keep you in good health, O Shaykh.

Answer:
May Allah keep you in good health. Hello. Yes, we hear you, Abu Faisal, please state your question if you please. Come on, Abu Faisal. I have three questions. The first question, may Allah be pleased with you, regarding visiting the grave, they said that on Friday you return to the deceased if you visit him, is this true or not? Okay, the Shaykh will answer. The second question says, my uncle passed away and he had days of Ramadan remaining, is it permissible for his brothers to distribute them among themselves, or do they not fast, one person fasts each day, or not? The third question. The third question, O long-lived one, regarding social security, in the case that you have a debt and you have family, they take from the social security, is it permissible or not? Okay, thank you. Visiting the grave, and is there a specific day designated for visiting, O Shaykh? Visiting graves to greet the deceased and make du'a for them, and for the sake of taking a lesson and being admonished by the state of the Hereafter, is a prescribed visit, and it is on all days according to what a person is able to do, on the day he is able to visit, without designating a specific day, neither Friday nor any other day. Yes.
