Shaikh Abdul Muhsin al-‘Abbad hafidhuhallah was asked:
Question: What is the ruling on visiting relatives, living or dead, on the day of Eid?
Answer: “As for visiting the graves on the day of Eid or day of Jummah or specifying a specific day, that is not allowed. As for visiting relatives on the day of Eid and going to them and supplicating for them, then there is no harm in that. As for specifying visiting graves on the day of Eid or Jummah or a specific a day, then a person does not do that”
