What is the meaning of “We considered sitting with the family of the deceased after the burial to be part of the mourning”?

Question:
He says: What is the meaning of the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), “We considered sitting with the family of the deceased after the burial to be part of the mourning”? Is this a restriction or a prohibition?

Answer:
This is not from the saying of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), but rather it is from the saying of Jarir ibn Abdullah al-Bajali (may Allah be pleased with him). He said, “We considered sitting with the family of the deceased , and preparing food for them, to be part of the mourning.” This is from the words of Jarir, and it has the ruling of being elevated to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). It has the ruling of being elevated to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) because they were doing this during the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so it has the ruling of being elevated. And it indicates that holding mourning gatherings and assembling for the family of the deceased, and that the family of the deceased prepares a lot of food and serves it, is part of the mourning. Yes.
