Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the mothers, Muhammad from Abha, please, Muhammad. Peace be upon you. And upon you peace. And upon you peace. May Allah keep you safe, O Shaykh. May Allah keep you safe. What is the ruling on the cushions in the mosques, O Shaykh, may Allah prolong your life, because some muftis say they are among the innovations in the mosques?
Answer:
No, no, there is nothing wrong with them, there is nothing wrong with them, if Allah wills. They provide comfort for the worshippers and the elderly. Those who say they are among the innovations in the mosques have erred in this. This falls under the category of need, and there is no religious innovation in it. Religious innovation is in acts of worship, and this is not an act of worship. These are cushions for the worshippers to help them remain in the mosque. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
