Walima and Nikah in The Masjid

Doing marriage ceremonies and walimah feasts in the masjid is not from the sunnah or recommended, but is permissible if done without evils. It is not correct to view doing so in the masjid as better. However, walimah feasts specifically should not take place in the masjid. The masjid is a place of worship, not for celebrations.

Question: Some people in here does the marriage walimah (feast) and the nikah (marriage ) in the masjid, is this from sunnah? whats the ruling regarding this? [5/20/13 9:47:03 AM]

Answer: It is not from sunnah and there is no evidence regarding its desirability (i.e. doing it in the masjid). However, if it took place in the masjid and there are no evils in it, then there is no problem. Nonetheless, it is not from sunnah and it is not correct to believe that it is better than other than it (i.e. Doing in the masjid is not better than doing in any other place). However, it is permissible. (The above was about the nikah (marriage).

As for the walimah (feast), it should not be placed in the masjid. Question asked and translated by Nasrin As.Salafiyah Answered by Shaykh Hussam bin Abdullah Al.Husayn Professor for the Department of Hadith At the Islamic University of Al-Imam Muhammad bin Saud, Riyad, Saudi Specialized in the Sunnah and Its Sciences.
