Question
Salam Alaikum , I wanted to ask is daughters son mahram to a women? Means can he lay her down in the grave after death?

Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
You enquire if a daughters son is a mahram to a woman.
Which woman are you referring to? If you are referring to a maternal grandmother, then her daughters son is the womans grandson.
The grandson is a mahram for his grandmother. He can lay her in the qabr.
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best
