In the divine perspective, the most exalted
places on Earth are those upon which mosques are established. On the Day of
Judgment, when the earth will be devoid of all shade, Allah will grant His
refuge to those who have built mosques under His Throne. Consequently, it is
imperative for the believers to preserve and maintain these sacred places,
ensuring they are continuously upheld.
Allah, the Almighty, proclaims:
“The mosques of Allah are maintained only by
those who believe in Allah and the Last Day.” (At-Tawbah 18)
The obligation of performing congregational
prayers in mosques is emphasized, as the mosque serves as the spiritual nucleus
of a Muslim's existence. It is a center around which the entirety of a
believer’s life is structured. Within the precincts of the mosque, tranquility
should be observed, and any worldly conversations or distractions are to be
avoided. To speak in loud voices, engage in disruptive behavior, indulge in
frivolous matters, or discuss business affairs violates the sanctity of the
mosque. A mosque is a sanctified space, dedicated exclusively to the worship of
Allah.
The rights of the mosque are analogous to the
rights that each individual has over others. The primary right of the mosque is
reverence, and this is fulfilled through the performance of prayer, the
remembrance of Allah (dhikr), and the seeking of spiritual peace. The mosque's
right also includes the recitation of the Qur’an with precision and composure,
adhering to the rules of Tajweed (proper articulation) and maintaining the
decorum of reverence.
Women, similarly, should regard the mosque with
the same respect as they would their own homes. They must actively seek to
sustain their spiritual connection with the mosque, fostering a sense of
reverence and commitment. It is recommended that children, particularly those
who are conscientious, be encouraged to accompany their elders to the mosque.
In doing so, they are imbued with a sense of devotion and a desire to serve the
will of Allah, aligning with the guidance provided by the Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.).
This practice cultivates a deep-rooted love for Allah and instills a profound
understanding of worship and obedience to Him.
