Entering churches for the purpose of sightseeing and observation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: Is it permissible for a Muslim to enter churches and look around inside them?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that; there is nothing wrong with that. You may enter them and look at what is inside, what is for worship, but only for the purpose of observation. There is nothing wrong with it.
