ANSWER:

Gathering for condolences and feasting is prohibited and part of wailing. 

Sheikh , when a person passes away here people go to their houses for condolences sit there for days and feed food ? What’s the ruling on this ? Should we go just for a few minutes without eating but here all go for days and days I don’t believe in this but can I get an answer to be 100%?

I want to ask about a hadith that I read in tirmadi 1055 which states that mother Ayesha went to her brother’s grave so doesn’t that prove that women can go sometimes to the graveyard plz clarify?

Is it true that any act of charity given or done in the name of a loved one doesn’t reach the person (deceased) unless it is from children to a parents? For example, a sister cannot give charity or build a masjid (sadaqatul jariya) in the name of her sister or brother that passed away.
