The Ruling on Placing Charity and Lecture Advertisements in Mosques
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, he says: Are advertisements that encourage giving charity and spending money for the Muslims permissible to place in the mosques? I ask for clarification, and are they like commercial advertisements?
Answer:
I have repeated the question about it. It is not permissible to place advertisements in the mosques, not for charity, not for anything, and not even for lectures, not even for lectures. It is not permissible to place advertisements inside the mosque. A fatwa has been issued regarding this, stating that advertisements for lectures and lessons are not to be placed inside the mosque, but rather on the doors outside the mosque. The mosque is to be preserved and kept free from these matters that distract people and are not befitting of mosques. Advertisements are in the streets and in the markets, advertisements are in the streets and in the markets, and not in the mosques. Yes. Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions.
