Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: There is an old cemetery in our village, and the road passes through it, and there is no other road. Should we move the graves that we walk on and relocate them to another place?
Answer:
You must submit this question to the Department of Ifta. You should write about this cemetery and the desecration that takes place there, and you should hasten to do so seeking reward from Allah. Then the Department of Ifta will investigate the matter and take charge of preserving this cemetery. Yes.
