Placing trash bins in the mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on placing trash bins in the mosque? They may contain trash and other such items.

Answer:
Trash bins, meaning placing containers for trash to collect the trash in them, this is not permissible. Because these containers and these images collect filth, and foul odors arise from them, and they may become full. This thing is not permissible. It is obligatory that mosques be cleaned of these matters, and they should not be a place for collecting trash.
