The Ruling on Visiting Graves, Especially for Women

Question
What is the ruling on visiting graves, especially for women, particularly if they have an excuse? What is the evidence?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is recommended to visit graves for both men and women without causing fitnah (temptation) or displaying oneself, to take admonition from that. The permissibility mentioned in the hadith: "So visit them," includes everyone, and God knows best.
