The ruling on placing play equipment in a youth meeting hall

The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. In their other question, they say: We are a group of young men, and the municipality gave us a hall to meet in with the other young men of the neighborhood. Is it permissible for us to place some play equipment in this hall to provide recreation for the youth?

The Shaykh:
No, the hall is intended for the meeting of Muslim youth to learn knowledge and to maintain contact among them, not for amusement and play. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah keep you safe, the questions from the youth of France are still coming in.

The Shaykh:
They must fear Allah the Mighty and Majestic. It is obligatory for the Muslim to fear Allah in any place, as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Fear Allah wherever you are." So, Muslims fear Allah in any place, in France and elsewhere, and they conduct themselves in accordance with the etiquettes of Islam and the rulings of the Shari'ah in any place. Yes.
