The ruling on lighting the internal streets of the cemetery

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on the lighting currently present in the Al-‘Ud cemetery, where the internal streets of the cemetery are illuminated?

The Shaykh:
Likewise.

The questioner:
The internal streets of the cemetery are illuminated?

The Shaykh:
This is a mistake, this is a mistake and it is not permissible, this is not permissible. If the streets are passageways for people to cross, and this lighting is for the street that people cross, and it is for the sake of the cemetery, and the cemetery is walled on the sides and the street passes between the walls of the cemetery, then this is outside the cemetery. But if the street is specific to the cemetery or inside the cemetery, and this does not disturb those who sit there, and if the questioner is certain of this, he should write to the Committee so they issue a permit, if Allah wills, or it should be raised to the authorities.
