If one mosque has many donated carpets by way of waqf, and other mosques in the city do not have enough carpets, is it possible to give carpets from first mosque to another mosque for permanent use?
If the carpets donated as religious endowment (waqf) were many in quantity, such that the mosque does not require them all and are therefore not used, it is permissible to transfer it to another mosque. Otherwise it is not permissible.
What is the ruling if one was in the mosque and a little bit of blood came out of his wound onto the floor of the mosque?
It is obligatory to remove the najasah from the mosque and restore its taharah again.
In a particular town in India where we live, there is a shortage of Muslim laborers, and Hindus built the mosque. Are our prayers valid in this mosque, and is the mosque tahir?
If one knows that the walls and the ceiling came in wet contact with the workers, they should be made tahir, and one can offer the prayers in the mosque.
Is a Masjid more important that a Hussainiya in the Shi'i faith?
The mosque has special religious rulings that the Hussainiya does not, such as the prohibition for a person in janabah or the woman during menstruation to stay in the mosque.
Are non-Muslims allowed to enter the mosque? If so, is it mandatory for non-Muslim women to wear the hijab inside the mosque? In the case of a wheelchair user, is he/she allowed to enter a wheelchair knowing that he/she uses them outside the mosque?
If their entering leads to an insult to the mosque then it is not permissible to allow them to enter.
What is your view on Masjid Jamkaran? Is the narration about this mosque authentic?
There are no narrations from the Infallibles (peace be upon them) about this mosque. In the book of Mafatih al-Jinan, it is mentioned that a man saw in his dreams that Imam Mahdi (peace be upon him) ordered him to build a mosque in this particular place and to offer four rak’at prayer. Since one cannot rely on dreams to prove religious rulings, one should not recite the prayers in the said mosque specifically because of any specific religious recommendation. However, one can worship and pray there for the sake of Almighty Allah as in any other mosque.
It is recommended to perform the prayers in the mosque, especially for the neighbors of a mosque, but who is considered to be a neighbor?
If the mosque is away from the residence of the person, then he is not a neighbor to the mosque. Taking the effort to reach the mosque even if it is far is amongst the recommended deeds.
