Q: I have a question regarding visiting the Raudhah (the blessed grave of Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)) as the workers here have created a doubt in my mind.
A staff member was explaining that when we (ladies) visit the Raudhah, our intention should purely be ibaadah in Riyaadhul Jannah and not to visit Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) as he disliked ladies visiting graveyards. Then she quoted an aayah or Hadith in Arabic and stated that Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) did not make an exception for ladies to visit his grave. So she mentioned that we should all rectify our intentions before going inside.
Is it correct for women to make the intention that they are visiting the grave of Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)?
