The Ruling on Buying and Selling in the Areas Surrounding the Sacred Precinct
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on buying and selling in the areas surrounding the Sacred Precinct? And what is the ruling for the one who buys from these sellers?
Answer:
Buying and selling is not permissible in the areas of the Sacred Precinct, because they are part of the Sacred Precinct, which is part of the mosque, and prayer is performed in them as an extension of the mosque. Therefore, buying and selling is not permissible in them. I do not think the authorities allow anyone to buy and sell there, except perhaps if someone does it secretly on some occasions. It is not permissible to buy from him, and it is obligatory to rebuke him. Buying and selling has its markets and shops, separate from the mosque.
