Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks about the issue of mosque decoration: does hanging up dhikr after the prayer, or the dhikr of the morning and evening, fall under the prohibited decoration of mosques?

Answer:
These are writings, and writings on the walls of the mosque and in front of the worshippers are not permissible, because they distract them from the prayer.
