The ruling on sitting for condolences for three days

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on sitting for condolences, limiting it to three days, and eating and drinking during these three days?

Answer:
There is no basis for this, there is no basis for this. Condolences are prescribed in their origin, but without sitting, and without ceasing from work. One offers condolences while at work, in any place. He is invited to the deceased, and he is invited to him.
