The third question of Fatwa No. ( 18805 )
Q 3: I work as a teacher and the school where I work is built on graves, so what is the ruling on one who prays in the school ?
A 3: Prayer is not valid in a graveyard, nor in what is built upon it; due to the prohibition of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding it, and the prohibition implies invalidity. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
