Primary text

The Prophet, peace be upon him, admonished Fatimah when he found her outside her house, asking what brought her out. When she explained she was offering condolences, he inquired if she had reached the *Kuday* (the location where the grave is dug or the burial site). Upon her denial and reference to his own warnings regarding the matter, he spoke severely, implying that reaching the *Kuday* would result in a grave admonishment.
