Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some of those who are attributed to knowledge say that praying in mosques that contain graves and shrines is permissible and that there is nothing wrong with it. So how is the answer to this, may Allah grant you success?
Answer:
This person is either ignorant of the prohibition of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding praying at graves and making graves into mosques, or he knows this and is lying. There is no proof in that. We follow the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and his prohibition of praying at graves and making graves into mosques. Yes.
