The ruling on praying in a mosque that contains a grave and seeking aid from it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh sat down and said to them: Ibrar al-Baladan said, “It is nearby, and it is praised on the moon, and they claim it is near the grave of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and they weep at it, just as I saw a report claiming it is the grave of al-Husayn ibn 'Abd al-Rahman (may Allah be pleased with him), and it is located inside the mosque, and they recite the Qur'an at it. What is the ruling on this? And is it considered major shirk (associating partners with Allah)?”
Answer:
All of this is invalid. If they hope for this grave, or ask of it, or seek aid from it, then it is major shirk. It is not permissible to pray in a mosque that contains a grave; prayer is not permissible in it, because it is not a mosque. Rather, it is a shrine, called a shrine, not a mosque. Yes.
