The ruling on cars entering the cemetery and stirring up dust

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. This Shaykh has not seen any harm in one who enters the cemetery in his car and stirs up the dust, or the cemetery, even though there is no need to enter with the car,

Answer:
The cemetery now has roads designated for cars, and there is no objection to cars entering on the roads designated for them due to the need for it, because elderly people come, and also the funeral is brought in the car, so entering the cemetery by car has now become a necessity, and roads have been designated for it, so there is no objection to that, if Allah wills, and the dust does no harm, if Allah wills, the dust does no harm because it is not intended.

The presenter:
Yes. Yes.
