Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Our Shaykh, we want to know... the extent of the authenticity of the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
I do not care whether I relieve myself in the market or on the graves لست أبالي أَفِي السوق قضيْتُ حاجتي أم على المقابر
; is this hadith authentic? What is its meaning if it is authentic?

The Shaykh : It has this aspect, but I am hesitating now whether it is marfu' or mawquf. In any case, I do not remember with certainty right now. As for its meaning, it is clear; it is the disapproval of sitting on graves, similar to the disapproval of exposing one's 'awrah in front of a crowd of people in the markets.
Yes.

The questioner : What are you saying, my Shaykh? He mentioned it in "Al-Arwah" as marfu'.

The Shaykh : Marfu'.

The questioner : Ah, Ibn Majah narrated it.

The Shaykh : Is it authentic?

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : I think its meaning is clear.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
