The ruling on praying in a mosque next to which there is a grave
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If there is a piece of land and a mosque, and a mosque was built in the middle of this land, and there is a grave next to the mosque, but it is within the boundaries of the mosque's land and outside the building, is it permissible to pray in this mosque and to donate to expand this mosque, given that removing this grave would cause a great fitnah (trial, discord or temptation)?
Answer:
It is not permissible if the merchant is near the graves, close to them; this is not permissible. Or if he wants to move away from the graves and build on land where there are no graves. Yes.
