Is it permissible to wear sandals between the graves if the ground is hot?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ... and the sun ... the funeral prayer and the 'Asr and the Zuhr, the sun is very hot, they walk in their shoes, and in the Maghrib and 'Isha' they may take them off.

The Shaykh : May Allah reward you. I always remind our brothers, the students of knowledge, that issues are addressed without speculation; questions are answered without speculation, very clearly. Is it permissible to eat carrion? The answer is no. But so-and-so is going to die, my brother,
excepting that to which you are compelled إلا ما اضطررتم إليه ...
[Al-An'am 6:119]
the meaning is understood! So issues that arise must be looked at with a normal, comprehensive view: is it permissible or not? The answer is not permissible. And the ground is scorching hot, especially for us who are comfortable, whose soles are like the hooves of a young camel, as mentioned in the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)
The prayer of those who are penitent is observed when your weaned camels feel the heat of the sun. صلاة الأوابين حين ترمض الفصال
Sahih Muslim 748a
What does the young camel do? Because its hoof is soft, it is not like the hoof of its mother and father, a hard hoof that does not feel the heat at all. So, because it is first a young camel, and because it is an animal, the son of an animal, it seems to it to move from its resting place to run, and then it jumps because it feels the scorching heat from below, so it returns to its resting place. The point is that if a person is faced with such a situation, then dire necessities permit what is forbidden.
