Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on building a mosque inside a cemetery? What is the ruling on praying in it? And is this mosque to be demolished if it already exists?
Answer:
If it already exists, write to the Ifta department, and they will look into it. They will send a committee to see the reality of the matter. It is not simply demolished right away. Yes.
