Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This question says: We recently heard that women have been permitted to visit the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
This is not correct. They were only permitted to pray in the Rawdah. They were only permitted to pray in the Rawdah, and I wish they had not been permitted to do so, but it happened. It is only prayer in the Rawdah. Yes, who said that visiting the grave is permitted for them? Have you seen women standing at the grave? This is an exaggeration in the speech. They were only permitted to pray in the Rawdah on one of the days. Yes.
