Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Do you advise building mosques outside this country in a place that is known for Sufism and building on graves, because it is the wish of his parents?

Answer:
No, we do not assist them in what they are doing of bid'ah (religious innovation) and evil; we do not assist them. We build mosques in a place of the people of the Sunnah and the people of correct creed. Yes.
