The ruling on reciting poetry in the mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, what is the ruling on reciting poetry in the mosque?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, provided it is pure poetry that contains no bad meaning. It is permissible to recite it in the mosque. Hassan (may Allah be pleased with him) recited poetry in the presence of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in the mosque. He recited his poetry in the mosque in the presence of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and there is nothing wrong with this, on the condition that the poetry is pure and good, like the poetry of Hassan (may Allah be pleased with him) with the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
