Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on cutting nails inside the mosque? Is it merely disliked, or does it reach the level of being forbidden?
Answer:
It can reach the level of being forbidden if one intends to be rude in the mosque; in that case, it is forbidden. However, if he has no such intention and is merely ignorant and did this out of habit, then it is disliked.
