Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: A man has lost his father and does not know where he is. Is it permissible to search for him in the nearby mosque, or is this something that is prohibited?
Answer:
He should be announced for. He should be announced for in the newspapers, or with a notice posted on a wall outside the mosque; there is nothing wrong with that. But inside the mosque, no. Yes.
