Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The third question of Fatwa No. ( 7924 )
Q3: Is there any report that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed in graveyards or over graves during his lifetime?
A3: First: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not perform any of the five obligatory prayers, nor any voluntary prayer, in a graveyard, nor in a mosque containing a grave; rather, he prohibited it. Second: It is established that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed for a deceased person after he had been buried, and he said the takbir over him four times. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
