The current abundance of discussion regarding the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) grave, and whether it is inside the mosque or not

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, there is a lot of talk currently about the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and whether it is inside the mosque or not? And some people argue for the permissibility of graves being in mosques by citing the presence of the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the mosque. So what is the answer to this issue that is frequently raised?

Answer:
This is a fallacy of the grave-worshippers, and we have answered it many times: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was not buried in the mosque, and the mosque was not built over his grave (peace and blessings be upon him). The mosque was built when he arrived in Madinah, ten years before his death, and he was not buried in the mosque but rather in his house, outside the mosque. Then the Umayyad caliph came; his house was outside the mosque during the era of the Rightly Guided Caliphs and the era of Mu'awiyah, Yazid, and 'Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan. Then al-Walid came during his caliphate and wanted to expand the mosque. The mosque had been expanded in previous eras from the west, the south, and the north, but not from the east.
So that the grave would remain in the house, but the caliph may Allah forgive him, expanded the mosque from the east and brought the grave inside it. The scholars of knowledge did not accept this, they did not accept this, and it was not done with the consultation of the scholars of knowledge. So it was a sovereign act, not a scholarly act, and they have no proof in that. Yes.
