The Ruling on Burying the Dead Inside Mosques
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Among our customs, may Allah preserve you, is this: Salih Muhammad says that it is customary in our country to bury the dead inside mosques. What is the ruling on this?
Answer:
This is forbidden (haram). It is one of the means of shirk (associating partners with Allah), so it is not permissible to bury a dead person in a mosque. Rather, the dead person is buried with the graves, with the dead, buried with the dead in the graveyards. It is not permissible to bury them in mosques because this is one of the means of shirk. Yes.
