Leaving the mosque after the adhan

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. What is the ruling on leaving the mosque after the adhan has been completed? If he has a need, he leaves and returns; that is the way to do it. Or if he has a need and is not going to return, he goes to another mosque.

Answer:
It is not permissible for a ma’mum or a mu’adhdhin to go to another mosque for the sake of the adhan or leading the prayer; there is no harm in that. Or if he has an appointment with someone in another mosque, the important thing is that if it is for a need, there is no harm. But if it is for no need, then it is disliked. Or regarding the hadith about the one who leaves after the adhan, where it says he has disobeyed, or the report from Ma’r ibn Yasir, when he saw a man leave after the adhan, he said . So if it is for no need, one should not leave; in fact, it may be forbidden, because “he has disobeyed Abu al-Qasim” means that it is forbidden.
