The Ruling on Women Visiting Graves and the Argument Using the Term "Zawwarat"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: How do we respond to those who permit women to visit graves? They say that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Zawwarat," meaning those who visit frequently. However, if she visits only once, there is no harm.

Answer:
My brother, a second narration has come:
May Allah curse the women who visit gravesلعن الله زائرات القبور
Sahih Ibn Hibban 11:291
"Zawwarat," which indicates that "Zawwarat" means "Zawwarat" (female visitors) even if it is only once.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
