The ruling on residing inside a cemetery
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: In some Islamic countries, and given the shortage of housing
The Shaykh:
Problems, yes.
The questioner:
some people reside inside the cemetery. What is the ruling on that?
The Shaykh:
If it harms the graves of the deceased and causes them distress, it is not permissible. But if it does not cause them distress or harm, and he has no shelter or dwelling and nowhere to go, then it is permissible.
