Question
Is it permitted to visit the grave on the night of the yahrzeit [anniversary], and if there won't be a minyan during the day but there will be one at night, what is preferable?
Answer
The issue at night is only regarding the recitation of Tehillim, which is not done at night, but if necessary, one can visit at night. If it is not possible to visit after midnight, one can also visit during the day without a minyan.
