Writing the reward for walking to the mosques for one who is in it, then goes out to perform ablution at home, then returns
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His Eminence the Shaykh: If a person spends most of his time in the mosque, and the time for prayer is approaching, is it permissible for him to go to his house, perform ablution, and make it excellent so that the reward you mentioned is written for him, or should he perform ablution from water near the mosque?
No.
It is better for him to perform ablution before coming to the mosque.
The questioner: What if he is in a state of ablution but he has broken it?The Shaykh: For example, he goes out after the sun rises, and he wants to stay in the mosque until the midday prayer. He performs ablution at his house and goes out intending the midday prayer. When he reaches the mosque, he will perform voluntary prayer as much as he wishes, then he remains waiting for the prayer, either by reciting the Qur'an, or by praying, or by studying knowledge. The reward is written for him from the moment he enters the mosque until the iqamah is called, and he is in prayer. This is the best.
Then, if a need arises for him to urinate or defecate, he goes out, relieves himself, and returns, and he remains with his reward.
