The ruling on praying in the mosque of 'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas in al-Ta'if
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh. It has become widespread in this time that praying in the mosque of 'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas in al-Ta'if is not permissible because it is on a cemetery. What is your opinion on that?
Answer:
No, that is a lie. The mosque of 'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas, or the mosque of al-'Abbas, is not on a grave, because the graves, the cemetery, are completely separated, and there are walls between them outside the mosque. So the mosque is free, praise be to Allah, of the cemetery. It is an old mosque, an old mosque, and people have prayed in it for a long time. The cemetery is separated from it by walls and enclosures. So this is not correct, and there is no doubt about this mosque, if Allah wills. Yes.
