Women Visiting Graves
Q: Imaan-71: Why do the Ulema of Deoband forbid women from visiting graves? Why do they allow men but then forbid them'on occasions of Urs, etc.?
Answer: It is because of the corruption of beliefs and actions that the Ulema forbid women and men as well during the occasions of the Urs. For additional peace of mind, I shall quote the details from the writings of Molvi Hashmat Ali Sunni Hanafi Berelwi, who is a famous scholar from the Ridha Khan group.
