The ruling on praying in a mosque next to which there are graves

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible to pray in a mosque on the right side of which there are three graves?

Answer:
If the graves are connected to the mosque, with nothing separating them but a wall, and they are attached to it, then prayer in it is not permissible, because it is a mosque built over graves. However, if the graves are separated from the mosque by a road or open land, there is no harm in praying in the mosque, as it is free of graves and separated from them. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
