Question

Many years ago from today. A man in our area waqfed one bigha of land for a cemetery. He is no longer alive. But some people in the area have left a part of the bigha land dedicated for the cemetery for the cemetery and built a mosque and Eidgah in the remaining place and are offering five daily prayers and Eid prayers there. What I do know is that the waqf performer has waqfed this one bigha of land for the cemetery. Is it permissible to build a mosque and an Eidgah in this place? And what is the ruling on the prayers of those who have been praying there for so long? Will be obliged to inform. 2441261918

Answer

- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -

According to the description of the question, since the waqf holder has waqfed that one bigha of land for the graveyard, it is necessary to keep that land as a graveyard. It was not permissible to build a mosque or an Eidgah on that land. Therefore, the present place where the mosque and Eidgah have been built should be vacated. However, the prayers of those who have been praying in that land for so long have been fulfilled. Those prayers do not have to be repeated. 3129863755
