The Masjid is called the house of Allah. Where Muslims go to worship Allah or offer Salah. Masjid is also called a safe place where Muslims feel safe or if they keep remembering Allah then Allah also gets cursed.
What is the etiquette for entering the mosque?
There are the following few etiquette for entering the mosque:
-
Make Wudu:
Whenever a Muslim goes to the mosque, he should do Wudu, which also gives good rewards.
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) taught us:
when we perform ablution (wudu) properly, it’s not just a physical cleansing but also a way to remove our sins. As we wash each part of our body, even the smallest sins fall away, like from under our nails. This shows how ablution prepares us for prayer and purifies us spiritually by wiping away sins.
-
Clean dress:
When they go to a Muslim mosque, they should wear a clean dress because they have to go before their Lord. Allah also becomes happy with this action.. dress should not be tight or figure-hugging, or the smell of sweat or food. Women should wear hijab and men should wear a cap.
-
Make Dua:
When you enter the mosque, you should pray, this way Allah accepts your prayer. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) Said:
Prayer is the basis of worship.
Let’s try to revive this sunnah in shaa Allah:
عن أنس بن مالك ، أنه كان ، يقول : ” من السنة إذا دخلت المسجد أن تبدأ برجلك اليمنى ، وإذا خرجت أن تبدأ برجلك اليسرى ” .
Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, said:
“From the Sunnah is that a person enters the masjid with his right foot first, and leaves the masjid with his left foot first.
-
Enter the mosque with your right foot:
You should enter the mosque with your right foot, this is also Sunnah of Rasool.
-
Pray 2 Rkahas:
Whenever you go to the mosque, do Wudu and enter with the right foot, and after entering the mosque, pray 2 Rakshas. Allah likes such people very much and removes all their problems and also accepts their prayers.
-
Keep masjid clean:
We must keep the Masjid clean or we should not dance in the Masjid. If you take your child to the Masjid then keep in mind that he should not dance in the Masjid because it is the house of ALLAH. We have to keep it clean and if you feel like going to the mosque then clean it. This gives you reward and Allah Pak is also happy with you.
-
Do not disturb others and put your phone on silent:
There should not be any disturbance in the Masjid. Because there are people other than us in the Masjid or during Namaz, you should also keep your mobile phone silent. Every Muslim should take care that people do not disturb and do not create disturbance in the mosque.
-
Do not gossip:
Do not gossip in the Masjid because most people are sitting in vehicles or reciting Allah while doing Namaz, some Tasbih, or reciting the Quran.

Dua when leaving the mosque:
