Question:
There are some wall clocks in mosques that emit musical bell sounds. What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
The bell should be removed. The clock may remain, but the bell should be removed so as not to disturb the worshippers and the reciters. It should remain without a bell. People can see it, observe it, and benefit from it, and they can manage their times, but there is no need for a bell.
