٭Condolence means: Persuading a grief-stricken person to have patience; offering condolences is Masnoon [i.e. Sunnah].

(Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 852)

Offering condolences is also permissible even before the burial, but it is better to do so after the burial if the family members of the deceased do      not wail and mourn. Otherwise, do so before the burial for consoling them. (Al-Jauhara-tun-Nayyirah, pp. 141)
