Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: “Take your adornment at every mosque”

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you and bless you.

The questioner:
Shaykh Salih, many of the brothers and sisters who followed these lessons from the beginning saw that we should raise some questions related to the previous lessons. We first ask your permission regarding the questions that came in about the two previous lessons. This brother says: In what you explained, we need a brief pause regarding His saying, Blessed and Exalted is He:
take your adornment at every masjidخُذُوا زِينَتَكُمْ عِندَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍ
[Al-A'raf 7:31]


The Shaykh:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. May Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. The meaning of His saying, Exalted is He:
O children of Adam, take your adornment at every masjidيَا بَنِي آدَمَ خُذُوا زِينَتَكُمْ عِندَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍ
[Al-A'raf 7:31]
is that “adornment” here refers to covering the ‘awrah (the part of the body that must be covered) and any additional beautification beyond that. This is required at every mosque, meaning at every prayer. This indicates the obligation of covering the ‘awrah in prayer, which is a condition for its validity, as the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) mentioned. Yes.
