Ruling on Designating a Specific Place in the Mosque for Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is there any concern with praying in the same place in the mosque for both obligatory and voluntary prayers, or is there not?
Answer: Yes, making it a habit is not recommended. It is disliked for one to habitually use a specific place. Rather, the Sunnah is to hasten to the prayer and strive for the first row and proximity to the imam.
As for taking a specific place to sit in, even if he finds something better than it, this is contrary to what is prescribed. The Sunnah for the believer is to hasten and rush to the prayer, and to strive for the first row and proximity to the imam, and not to designate a specific place to pray in while leaving what is better than it. May Allah help us. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
