The Ruling on a Prayer Area: Does It Take on the Ruling of a Mosque?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, does a prayer area take on the ruling of a mosque regarding prayer and the prohibition of entering while in a state of major ritual impurity or insanity?
The Shaykh:
How do we pray? Yes.
The questioner:
Carrion.
The Shaykh:
No, it does not take on the ruling of a mosque. If a prayer area is in their homes, or a prayer area in the circles, if a mosque has not been built, and they have merely cleared a space or a room where they pray, or in schools, this does not take on the ruling of a mosque. It is merely a prayer area; it does not take on the ruling of a mosque.
