Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding the voluntary prayer, are the external courtyards of the mosque treated as the mosque if the festival prayer is in the mosque?
Answer:
Yes, if the mosque is crowded and the rows extend, there is no harm in praying outside the mosque in the courtyards or on clean ground, provided they can see the inner rows. There is no harm in them praying outside the mosque when the space is narrow. Yes.
