Distributing Gifts in the Eid Prayer Grounds
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: In these times, it has become widespread to distribute gifts in the Eid prayer grounds, especially among the women. This practice has increased in some of the prayer grounds to the point where it has disturbed some of them from listening to and benefiting from the sermon. Is this distribution prescribed?
Answer:
This is not permissible. First, there is no basis for distributing gifts in the Eid prayer ground. Second, if it disturbs the people, that is also not permissible.
