The Ruling on Buying and Selling in the Mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Qaf-Ain-Sin, says: If I am in the mosque and I call a shop owner on my mobile phone to prepare a specific item for me, and then I instruct a person to go pick it up and pay him the price, does this count as buying and selling in the mosque?

Answer:
Yes, in the mosque you do not ask anyone to buy or sell. This is not permissible, and the sale is invalid, due to the prohibition of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding it in the mosque. So repent to Allah and seek His forgiveness, and do not return to such a thing. Yes.
