Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah forgive you, O Shaykh. Regarding drink and food, O Shaykh, for someone in need, sometimes in a place other than the mosques of cities, for example, a mosque in a village where no one is known, and he is in need of food and drink, and a shepherd passed by... and he does not know the town and does not know...
The Shaykh : Well...
The questioner : To meet a need...
The Shaykh : Wait, where is it...
The questioner : A village that has no...
The Shaykh : ...mosque.
The questioner : In the mosque...
The Shaykh : Very well.
The questioner : And this person is in need, has no one with him, and does not know anyone.
The Shaykh : It is easy... the mosque and he drinks.
The questioner : And the drink, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : And the drink is the same.
The questioner : And the drink...
The Shaykh : ...buying is easy, my brothers, very easy. Yes, if we suppose that there is a sick person in the mosque who cannot go out, and a person carrying food or drink passed by him and he bought from him, this is permissible, yes.
The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah reward you, in some charitable schools, the students pray in the mosque... Maghrib, and the administration posted an announcement...
The Shaykh : Yes, you mean advertisements?
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Advertisements for promotion; if the intention behind them is good, there is nothing wrong with it, but if the intention is trade, it is not permissible, yes?
