Prayer in a country where most of its mosques contain graves
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling if I am in a country where most, or rather the majority, of its mosques contain graves, and I cannot find a mosque other than those? Is it permissible for me to pray in them, or should I pray at home?
Answer:
Pray at home. If you have a group of brothers who are monotheists, set up a mosque for yourselves, set up a mosque for yourselves, and pray in it, or secure a house where you can pray. The important thing is that it is not permissible for you to pray in a place where they are buried. If I have with me any of the monotheists, pray together in a mosque or in a house, in a mosque where there is no news of [graves] or in a house you designate for this purpose. If you are among them, pray in your house. If you are not among them, if you build a mosque, build a mosque, build a mosque exclusively for yourselves. Yes.
