Sleeping in Mosques
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa No. ( 10768 )
Q2: Is sleeping in mosques forbidden? I have seen people sleeping in mosques during the month of Ramadan, and some people do not have homes and sleep in mosques. Is it forbidden or permissible? May Allah reward you with good.
A2: Sleeping in mosques is not forbidden, but a person in a state of major ritual impurity (janabah) may not remain in the mosque while he knows he is in that state until he performs the full ritual bath (ghusl), and the same applies to a menstruating woman and a woman with post-natal bleeding. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
