Answer:
All praise is due to Allaah alone and may the peace and blessings of Allaah be upon His Messenger and his family and his Companions….
It is not permissible for a Muslim to seek forgiveness for his grandparents, or other than them, if they died upon Shirk, due to His Saying, the Most High:
To proceed:
ãóÇ ßóÇäó áöáäøóÈöíøö æóÇáøóÐöíäó ÂãóäõæÇú Ãóä íóÓúÊóÛúÝöÑõæÇú áöáúãõÔúÑößöíäó æóáóæú ßóÇäõæÇú Ãõæúáöí ÞõÑúÈóì ãöä ÈóÚúÏö ãóÇ ÊóÈóíøóäó áóåõãú Ãóäøóåõãú ÃóÕúÍóÇÈõ ÇáúÌóÍöíãö
{It is not (proper) for the Prophet and those who believe to ask Allâh's Forgiveness for the Mushrikûn (polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh) even though they be of kin, after it has become clear to them that they are the dwellers of the Fire (because they died in a state of disbelief).} [At-Tawbah (9):113]
And success is with Allaah and may the peace and blessings of Allaah be upon our Prophet and his family and Companions.
