Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Sometimes a person enters the Prophet’s Mosque or the Sacred Mosque for the purpose of drinking from a water jug, and he wants to follow the Sunnah in his drinking, so he drinks while sitting. Is the greeting of the mosque obligatory for him?
Answer:
No, it is not obligatory for him. It is permissible for him to enter the mosque to drink. Or he may just pass by; it is permissible for a person to pass by the mosque, and it is permissible for him to enter to drink and sit to drink. The greeting of the mosque is not prescribed for him, because he does not intend to sit continuously, but rather he is sitting for a need, which is drinking, for example. Yes.
