Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: In our mosque, some of the worshippers wish to perfume the mosque,

The Shaykh:
What do you say to me?

The questioner:
He says: In our mosque, some of the worshippers wish to perfume and burn incense in the mosque, while others dislike it.

The Shaykh:
Do not look at those who dislike it? Do not look at those who dislike it? Because this is a sunnah (recommended practice), this is a sunnah, and it is from the beautification of the mosques. Yes. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that it be perfumed. Who dislikes this? He is mistaken. Yes.
