The worker who works in the cemetery and has a room there: does he pray in it?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The worker who works in the cemetery: is he prevented from praying in his room there?

The Shaykh : Yes, the worker who is in charge of the cemetery, if a place is built for him in the cemetery, he does not pray in it. For this reason, the authorities must be alerted to this issue and told: if you want to build him a place to pray in, make it outside the cemetery wall. However, if, from the beginning when the land was demarcated, this piece was cut out to be his residence, there is no harm, because it has not yet entered the cemetery.
