The ruling on writing an announcement for the recitation of a surah in the mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
Allah knows best.
The questioner:
He says: What is the ruling on the one who writes on the door of the mosque, “Today we will recite Surat al-A’raf in the Maghrib prayer”? This is found in one of the mosques, and he claims it is to notify the workers and those who are busy.
The Shaykh:
This is not recommended. These announcements and such things are not to be done. If he wants to recite Surat al-A’raf at times, there is no need for an announcement. There is no need to announce a recommended practice (sunnah). Yes.
The questioner:
He says: One who misses two units of prayer in a four-unit prayer.
The Shaykh:
(peace and blessings be upon him) I do not know what the people did when he intended to recite Surat al-A'raf; I do not know what the people did.
