Ruling on travelling to offer condolences
Question: 12326
What is the ruling on travelling to offer condolences and staying with the family of the deceased?
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
That depends on the situation of the family of the deceased. If that
will be a burden on them, then it is not permissible. But if they would
like it, then there is nothing wrong with that. There are no restrictions
on this matter.
