Prayer in Mosques Near Graves
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is prayer valid in mosques that are near graves, but do not contain them?
Answer:
If the graves are outside the mosque and there is a barrier between them—such as a road, a street, or open space—this does not harm the validity of the prayer in the mosque, because it is free of graves. However, if a grave is adjacent to the mosque, prayer in that mosque is not valid.

May Allah reward you,
