What is the ruling on placing an announcement for lost items in the mosque?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Naturally, is searching for a lost item in the mosque a violation of the Shari'ah?
The Shaykh : It is not the searching, but the calling out for the lost item.
The questioner : Calling out for the lost item, yes.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : So, for example, is it possible to hang an announcement where we call out for a lost item?
The Shaykh : No, what is it that forces you to put the announcement in the mosque? Put it outside the mosque.
The questioner : Outside the mosque.
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed.
The questioner : Yes, but in the courtyard of the mosque, meaning from the outside, is that possible?
The Shaykh : Outside, outside the mosque, first, before entering the mosque, put it on the doorposts of the mosque door, from right to left, outside the mosque.
The questioner : Yes, okay, I have another question, is that possible, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Yes, but this contradicts your first statement.
The questioner : How so?
The Shaykh : That it is the last question.
The questioner : The last question is about that point, the point of the white thread.
The Shaykh : May Allah guide you, this is a patch, this is nice.
The questioner : Joke ... I mean.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The Shaykh : It is not the searching, but the calling out for the lost item.
