The Ruling on a Woman Visiting Graves

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: My father passed away several years ago, and my mother asks me to take her to visit his grave sometimes.

Answer:
No, a woman does not visit graves; she is cursed.
The one who visits graves is cursed.اللي تزور القبور ملعونة،
He said to him thus, and he said there is no dispensation or anything for her. A woman does not visit graves, not the grave of a relative or anyone else. Yes.
