Reading from the author's words, with commentary on them and collation of the manuscripts: "As for what is other than that of the innovations, they are matters

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: "As for what is other than that of the innovations, they are matters, among them: praying at the graves absolutely, and making them into mosques"

The Shaykh : The important thing is that we now understand that there are two opinions regarding traveling to the graveyards:
The first opinion: and permissibility.
And the second: prohibition.
And prohibition is closer to the truth without doubt. The author, had he not promised us what he would clarify of the harms, we would have spoken about them, but since he has promised us, we wait, if Allah wills, until we hear them. Yes.
The reader: "Among them: praying at the graves absolutely, and making them into mosques, and building mosques on them. The texts from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the prohibition of that and the severity in it have been mass-transmitted. As for building mosques on graves, the majority of scholars of the various sects have explicitly stated the prohibition of it, following the hadiths. Our companions and others, from the companions of Malik and al-Shafi'i and others, have explicitly stated its prohibition. Some of the scholars have used the term 'disliked' in it. So I do not know whether he meant by it prohibition or the lesser degree of disapproval? There is no doubt in the certainty of its prohibition, for what Muslim narrated in his Sahih from Jundub ibn 'Abd Allah al-Bajali that he said:
I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) five days before he died saying: I disavow to Allah that I have a close friend among you, for Allah has taken me as a close friend just as He took Ibrahim as a close friend. If I were to take سمعت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قبل أن يموت بخمس وهو يقول : إني أبرأ إلى الله أن يكون لي منكم خليل، فإن الله قد اتخذني خليلاً كما اتخذ إبراهيم خليلًا، ولو كنت متخذًاً
"
