The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on one who leaves the mosque while the mu'adhdhin is calling to prayer?
The Shaykh:
If it is for a purpose and he returns, there is no blame on him. He performs wudu', speaks to someone, and returns; there is no blame on him in that. But if he does not return, that is the matter under discussion. One of the Companions, 'Ammar ibn Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him), said: "Whoever leaves the mosque after the adhan has disobeyed Abu al-Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him)." A man left after the adhan, and he said: "This man has disobeyed Abu al-Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him)." So leaving without an excuse is not permissible, but for an excuse, there is nothing wrong. Yes.
The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
Or if he is connected to another mosque and goes to pray with them, there is nothing wrong. This is a valid excuse.
