Dear Islamic brothers, please read a few Madani pearls from page 1,202 to 1,207 of Faizan-e-Sunnat (volume 1) about the reverence for the masjid and act upon them. اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه, blessings will be attained:

1.   Do not throw any type of rubbish inside the masjid. Shaykh ‘Abdul Haq Muhaddith Dehlawi رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه has reported in ‘Jazb-ul-Quloob’ that even if a very small particle (e.g. splinter etc.) is thrown in the masjid, it causes as much pain to the masjid as a human feels when there is a small particle of something in his eye.^[1] 

2.   Spitting, blowing the nose, taking out dirt from one’s nose or ear and then staining the masjid wall, floor or carpet with them, as well as breaking pieces or threads from the masjid’s carpet or mat, are all prohibited.

3.   There is no harm in blowing the nose with a handkerchief if necessary.

4.   Do not throw the masjid dust and rubbish etc. at such a place where it may be desecrated.

5.   If you want to take your shoes with you into the masjid, take them off and dust them off outside before you enter. If there is dust on the soles of your feet, then wipe them off with a handkerchief etc. before entering the masjid. Take great care that no dust particles fall in the masjid.

6.   After performing wudu, dry your feet properly in the wudu area; walking inside the masjid with wet feet stains the masjid floor and the carpets become unsightly.
