Building a gas station on land that was a cemetery
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to build a gas station on land that had graves on it two hundred years ago, and now this land has become like a road that people pass through?
Answer:
As long as the graves are clear and known, and people know that it is a cemetery, it is not permissible to show disrespect to it, and it must be fenced off, even if it is old. It must be fenced off and respected because it contains Muslim dead, even if it is old.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
