Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, some people say that in the present time, with the existence of air conditioners and fans in mosques, there is no need for cooling. Is this statement correct?
Answer:
No, it is not correct; because if the road is exposed to the sun, the heat of the sun, and the scorching of the ground, it is unbearable. The discussion is not only about the mosque, yes.
