Is praying in a Mosque where there is a grave permissible?
Question
As-Salaamu Alaikum Mufti Ibrahim,I was told that praying in the mosque where the grave of Hussein RA is here in Cairo is not permissible because it has a grave connected to it. Please clarify. Was-Salaam.

The Salaat performed in a Musjid next to a grave is valid.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
