Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the ruling on praying in a mosque that has a grave within its walls, whether it is in the direction of the qiblah or in any other direction?

Answer:
The prayer is not valid in it if there is a grave in it, in any direction of it. This is a mosque built on a grave, so the prayer is not valid in it.
