Are there engravings in some mosques that distract the worshipper during his prayer? Is it disliked to pray in them?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In some mosques, there are many engravings and decorations that distract from the prayer. Do we say that it is disliked for him to pray in these mosques?

The Shaykh : If he finds mosques where he is more reverent to Allah, we say, yes, go to the other mosques where you are more reverent to Allah. But I think that if a person takes these engravings into account, they will not affect him at all afterward and will not distract him. Yes.
