The Ruling on Forgiving the Offense of the Deceased

Question
She was married to a good man at first, but then his behavior towards her changed, and her mother-in-law was ill-tempered with her despite her great efforts to please and help her. However, things escalated, and they separated. After a while, she learned of her mother-in-law's death, but she does not want to forgive her or overlook her offenses. Is she sinful for that?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: there is no sin upon you in that, although it is preferable to turn away from such matters and to detach the heart from worldly affairs, and God knows best.
