Praying in a mosque near a house containing a grave

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner from outside this country says: We built a mosque in a place near a house that contains a grave. Is it permissible for us to pray in this mosque?

Answer:
If the grave is connected to the mosque, then no, it is not permissible to pray in it. But if it is separated from the mosque by a road or an open space, then there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
