The Ruling on the Greeting of the Mosque and the Responsibility of One Who Informs Her Sisters

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question from one of the sisters. She says: Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on the greeting of the mosque? Some women, may Allah guide them, enter the mosque and sit down. Am I responsible for them if I do not inform each one that the greeting of the mosque is a recommended practice? And may Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Yes, it is obligatory for you to make the recommended practice clear to them, and that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade sitting in the mosque before praying two units, he said:
(ﷺ) said: "When one of you enters a mosque, he must not sit until he prays two Rak'ah."صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا دخل أحدكم المسجد فلا يجلس حتى يصلي ركعتين.
Bulugh al-Maram 2:138
As for your sisters, this hadith, and the good and positive impact will be, if Allah wills, because perhaps this is hidden from them.
