Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa number ( 18762 )
Q 2: There are people who enter the mosque before the adhan is called, and the mu'adhdhin is preparing for the adhan, then they sit on the benches as if they are sitting on the ground. When it is said to them that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
If anyone of you enters a Mosque, he should not sit until he has offered a tworak` at prayer.إذا دخل أحدكم المسجد فلا يجلس حتى يصلي ركعتين تحية المسجد
Sahih al-Bukhari 1167
, they say: This is not sitting, this is a rest until the mu'adhdhin finishes his adhan, then we will stand up and pray the greeting of
the mosque?

A 2: Whoever enters the mosque intending to sit in it, he does not sit until he prays two rak'ahs, whether his sitting is on the ground or on something elevated, and whether his sitting is permanent or temporary as mentioned in the question; because of the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
If anyone of you enters a Mosque, he should not sit until he has offered a tworak` at prayer.إذا دخل أحدكم المسجد فلا يجلس حتى يصلي ركعتين
Sahih al-Bukhari 1167
. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
