Question:
He also asks: What is the ruling on praying in a mosque whose qiblah is toward a grave, and likewise praying in graveyards, and likewise in camel enclosures, which are the places and pens of camels?
Answer:
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade all of this. These are among the places in which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade praying. He forbade praying at graves because that is a means to shirk (associating partners with Allah). He forbade praying on the edge of the road, and he forbade praying in camel enclosures.
