The Ruling on Residing Between Graves

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In some countries, people reside between the graves. What is your opinion? May Allah reward you. In some countries, I mean, the people reside between the graves.

Answer:
It is of no benefit to those who know that this is wrong, and they intercede for it. It is a desecration of the graves. Praying over them is an invalid prayer. Sitting between the graves and praying at the graves was wrong.
