The Ruling on Buying and Selling Near Graveyards

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
What is the ruling on buying and selling near graveyards, where we observe this at some graveyards, such as the Graveyard of the Martyrs of Uhud in Madinah?

The Shaykh:
What is it near the graveyards? The graveyards are walled. This is outside the graveyards. Every country has graveyards, with housing next to them and buying and selling next to them. As long as the graveyard is walled and secured, it is not considered to be at the graveyards. Yes.

The questioner:
May Allah reward you.

The Shaykh:
However, if one enters the middle of the graveyard, entering the wall, and starts buying and selling, this is prohibited. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
