Women’s Visiting the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) Grave and Other Graves

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The young man says: “With the blessings of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), regarding women visiting graves.”

Answer:
Women are not permitted to visit any graves, neither the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) nor any other, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
May Allah curse the women who visit gravesلعن الله زوارات القبور
And cursing implies that women visiting graves is a major sin among the major sins. Therefore, it is not permissible for them to visit graves, whether the Prophet’s grave or any other. Yes.
