Question
Is it permissible to bring sporting equipment, e.g. pool tables into the Musjid hall, and to engage in play?
Answer
All the annexes of the Musjid are in the same hukm (class and category) as the Musjid proper with regard to respect. Thus, the Musjid's foyer, wudhu khaanah, hall and yard have to be respected. It is not permissible to bring sporting equipment into the Musjid's hall. Such activities defile the sanctity and peace of the Musjid.
