Places that accommodate youth and direct their time
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The youth say: We currently have no places that accommodate us. Why are there not known places where the youth can go to benefit from their time and be guided in ways that bring them benefit in their religion and their worldly affairs? This is the argument of some people. What is your guidance for them?
Answer:
Praise be to Allah. We have mosques; every neighborhood has a mosque and a congregational mosque, air-conditioned and carpeted, with Qur'ans and a place of rest and tranquility. Why do they not gather in the mosques to read the Qur'an, or go to the libraries that have useful books in the Islamic sciences and read there? There are libraries and mosques that provide a space for whoever wants good. Yes.
