Leaving the state of mourning for a long period

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does one commit a sin if he leaves the state of mourning for a long period, for several months?

Answer:
Yes, he commits a sin. If he leaves the state of mourning, and lets his nails grow long, and lets his mustache grow long, he has contradicted the Sunnah, and he commits a sin for that. Yes.
