The ruling on inviting people to a wedding feast in the mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on inviting people to a walimah (wedding feast) in the mosque, meaning that a man from the mosque congregation stands up after the prayer and invites those present to a wedding feast or other feasts?
Answer:
May Allah strengthen him. Well, there is nothing wrong with him standing up and saying to the congregation, “Please, I have a walimah on such-and-such a day in the mosque.” This does not contradict anything. It is not like reciting poetry for lost items, nor is it like buying and selling. Yes, this indicates generosity and… Yes.
