The questioner : May Allah reward you. This says: Your Eminence, there is a mosque in the new residential complex in Makkah, located next to the Haram on the side of King 'Abd al-'Aziz Gate, within this complex, equipped with speakers that transmit the sound of the prayer inside it, and they pray with the Haram. Is the prayer of one who prays there valid?
The Shaykh : Have we been asked about this?
The questioner : No, this is different.
The Shaykh : Very well.
The questioner : And does one who prays there receive the same reward as in al-Masjid al-Haram?
The Shaykh : The answer to this question comes from the Council of Senior Scholars, so I suggest that this questioner refer the matter to the Council of Senior Scholars. However, I do not think this complex would build this mosque unless it is based on a fatwa permitting them to do so. Therefore, we see that he should refer this matter to the Council of Senior Scholars, because this is a point of disagreement among scholars: is it permissible for one who is outside the mosque to follow his imam if following is possible because he hears the takbir and sees the ma'mumin, or is it not permissible, because the intended meaning of congregational prayer is that the people are in one mosque? Yes.
