Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, he says: There is a practice in the cemetery, which is distributing cold water to those standing there.
Answer:
This has no basis, and we fear that it will develop into distributing charity and food if this door is opened. It is obligatory to block this door. The one who wants to drink should leave the cemetery and go to his family to drink. There is no way, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
