The ruling on remaining in the mosque after prayer and being late for the iqamah

Question:
Many Muslims today linger in the mosques during the times of prayer, so they do not settle down until the iqamah is called or they hear it, and after the prayer they linger in the mosque without any benefit. What is your position regarding these people? And how should one deal with this phenomenon?

Answer:
, if the Muslim goes to the mosque early, prays whatever he can, and sits waiting for the prayer while remembering Allah, he is considered to be in prayer, and the reward of the one who prays is written for him as long as he is waiting for the prayer, and the angels seek forgiveness for him, provided he does not harm others or engage in idle talk. And when the prayer is finished, he is free to leave if he wishes.
This is his right and it is permissible for him, , and if he has an hour of time, he may sit in the mosque and remember Allah or recite the Qur'an, and that is a good thing. But when the prayer is finished and he wants to leave, there is no blame on him for that. When the prayer is finished, disperse in the land and seek from the bounty of Allah. So if he has work to do, or buying and selling, or other occupations, there is no blame on him for leaving, and praise be to Allah.
