The ruling on building a prayer area and facilities for women in the mosque courtyard
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: We have a mosque that does not have a prayer area for women, so we built a prayer area for them in the rear courtyard of the mosque. Then we did not find a place for women's restrooms, may Allah honor you, as it is difficult to place them outside the mosque, so we renovated a restroom for them inside the minaret, knowing that this minaret is within the mosque's enclosure. Is what we did correct?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that if it is separated from the mosque by a wall and has doors, yes.
