We have a burial ground, and when we come to bury, water comes out from beneath the earth, so we build the graves with red brick and cement above the ground. Is this permissible?

The questioner : May Allah guide you.The questioner : We have a burial ground, and when we dig for burial, water comes out from beneath the earth, so we build the graves with red brick and cement above the ground. Is this permissible?
The Shaykh : It is permissible, but why do they not choose another place where they are safe from these deposits? If they can find a suitable place where water does not seep in, let them move from the first cemetery to this place. And if that is not possible, there is no blame on them for placing what prevents water from reaching the deceased. Yes.
