Praying in a mosque adjacent to a cemetery

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah be with you. The questioner says: I was in my country praying in a mosque that has a cemetery in front of it, and there is a wall between the mosque and the cemetery. What is the ruling?

Answer:
If the cemetery is separated from the mosque by a street or an open space, there is no harm in praying in the mosque, because it is not connected to it. However, if the cemetery is connected to the mosque, with the mosque wall being the only barrier between them, then it is not permissible to pray in this mosque. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
