The Ruling on Begging in Mosques

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it said that begging in mosques is blameworthy and that one is forbidden from doing it?

Answer:
Begging in mosques is permissible for the one in need; there is nothing wrong with it. As for the one who asks without need, it is forbidden for him, and the money he takes is forbidden, whether in the mosque or elsewhere. It is not permissible to ask without need, but in the mosque it is more severe. Yes.
