Permanent chairs for the elderly in the mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Some elderly people have chairs in the same place all the time, and they pray in them in the mosque. Does this fall under the prohibition?
Answer:
This is a case of necessity. These chairs are a case of necessity, and there is nothing wrong with that, if Allah wills. Or, if he lowers the chair every time he goes to the place, it is difficult for him. So praying on chairs is an exception for a case of necessity.
