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.

Answer

Respected Brother-in-Islam

Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu

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

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
