Question:
A questioner says: There is a shrine next to the mosque's qiblah. When this mosque was renovated, the grave was separated from the mosque by a wall between the mosque and the grave. This wall is simple and a person cannot pass through it. He asks: Is it permissible to pray in this mosque?
Answer:
The wall is not sufficient. If the wall is between the grave and the mosque, this wall is not enough. There must be a passageway between them, and an open space is not sufficient; the wall alone is not enough. Yes.
