The Ruling on Lighting Graveyards
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: What is the ruling on lighting the graves at the entrance with what funds? And the intended meaning of lighting is lighting the circuits from the prison for the dwellings, or with me?
Answer:
It is not permissible to light graveyards, neither from outside nor from a house, meaning placing spotlights on them from outside is not permissible, because this is part of lighting the graveyards. However, if they need to bury someone at night, they should have a lamp, a flashlight, or a temporary spotlight with them.
