Question:
He asks: What is the ruling on buying and selling matches inside the courtyard of the mosque?
Answer:
Whatever is inside the wall of the mosque, even if it is the open space that follows the mosque, the courtyard that follows the mosque, if it is enclosed by the wall of the mosque, then it is part of the mosque, and it is not permissible to buy and sell in it, whether for matches or for anything else. But if the courtyard is outside the wall, it is part of the mosque’s forecourt and is outside the wall, so there is no harm. Yes.
