The graves in their land are built with fired red brick; because the soil is clayey, what is the ruling on burying the dead in them?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: In our country, there are graves built with fired red brick, and we have no other means except to bury in them. Knowing that the soil is clayey, and if we dig, water comes out, is it permissible for us to bury our dead in these built graves?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with it, there is nothing wrong with it, because you find nothing but this, so there is nothing wrong with it. And the issue of there being nothing in the grave that was touched by fire is a matter of dislike (makruh), it is not a matter of prohibition (haram), and dislike is removed when there is a need. Yes.
