Is the prohibition against entering the mosque for one who has eaten garlic or onions reasonable in meaning or not?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : What we were discussing
So let him not approach our mosque فلا يقربَنَّ مصلانا
is of this nature, meaning it is reasonable in meaning. Why? Because the completion of the hadith explains that to us, and it is the answer to this question:
for the angels are harmed by the same things as the children of Adam. فإن الملائكة تتأذَّى مما يتأذَّى منه بنو آدم
Sahih Muslim 564c
; therefore, the prohibition against entering the mosque applies to one who has eaten something from this foul plant because it causes harm. It is not harm to the angels who are in the unseen realm, but rather to the people who are in the realm of witness, so do not harm people with a foul smell.
