Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a person to be buried in his house or in a standing room in his farm?
The Shaykh:
It is better that he be buried with the Muslims, because if he is buried with the Muslims, this is more protective for him. As for if he is buried in his house or his farm, perhaps he will be desecrated, or the farm will be moved or built upon, and his grave will be exposed to harm and desecration. So he should be buried with the Muslims. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what about one who leaves a forbidden act?
The Shaykh:
Also, if he is buried alone, especially inside a building, the superstitious people will come and say this is a wali (close friend of Allah) and they will gather around it for supplication and listening, so the situation here becomes nothing but a matter of concern. Yes.
