Prayer in the Cemeteries
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa No. ( 16731 )
Q 2: Is it permissible to pray in the cemeteries?
A 2: Prayer in the cemeteries is invalid, so if one performs a prayer there, it is invalid and he must repeat it. This is due to the mass-transmitted reports from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibiting the taking of graves as mosques, except for the funeral prayer, which is permissible in
the cemetery. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
