The ruling on a Christian entering the mosque to witness a marriage contract

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: In our country, marriage contracts are concluded in the mosque. Is it permissible for a Christian to enter the mosque to witness this contract?

Answer:
A Christian? Why would he attend? Because he does not oversee the contract and does not testify. What is his need to attend? And if he is not needed, there is no harm, but he has no need to be there.
