Passed away parent

As Salamu Alaikum

Welcome to Islamicity.

Though, i may not have a direct answer to your question { I wish you ask this to a scholar and look for the ruling} - but would like to share my opinion

Sister, you must be knowing that mourning includes feelings as well as apparent signs. Mourning is not permitted in Islam,for more than 3 days. When you pen your memories of your mother,it may refresh your grief. Is n't it ! Moreover a mother is a very special person in one's life. We can't stop getting emotional when we remember her. Anyways, these were my thoughts over the topic, still i insist that you question this to a scholar to get the ruling if its haraam or halaal.

ButI like to keep her memories alive with me by writting poems sharing her pics with family members To make this short . A family member of mine says that , It is haraam to do all this, I should just have a good cry over it and leave her alone. Offcourse I dont want to do anything against Islam, Is it wrong of what Iam doing?
