Women visiting the qabrasataan

· 9 Rabiʻ I 1447 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Is it permissible for women to go to the qabrastan with a mahram at quiet times when there's no other men around?

Answer

On account of the abundant fitnah prevalent everywhere, our Ulama have discouraged women going to the qabrastaan.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
