Buying and Selling in the Mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And the Shaykh’s tax, may Allah inform you, what is the ruling on buying and selling in the mosque?
Answer:
It is forbidden; buying and selling in the mosque is not permissible and is not valid; the contract is not valid, because mosques were not built for buying and selling, but rather for worship. There is no harm if he says, “Please, come,” or if so-and-so says, “There is a feast at his place”; there is nothing wrong with it in the mosque, no harm. Yes.
