Praying in the room of a house that contains a grave
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If the grave is in a separate room, is it permissible to pray in the other rooms, Shaykh?
Answer:
You do not pray in the rooms containing the grave, but there is nothing wrong with the other rooms. However, it is not permissible, and it is not recommended, to be buried in one’s house. Rather, if he is buried in his house, he should be moved to the Muslim cemeteries; because this is further from desecrating him, and further from harming the house due to the grave or from exaggeration regarding it.
