Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen (may      Allah have mercy on him) said:&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>I do      not know of any basis or evidence from the Prophet (blessings and peace of      Allah be upon him) to suggest that it is mustahabb to do the marriage      contract in the mosque. But if it so happens that the husband and the      guardian of the woman are present in the mosque and they do the marriage      contract, there is nothing wrong with that. But as for that being mustahabb      in the sense that we would tell them to leave the house and go to the      mosque, or make an appointment to meet in the mosque and do the marriage      contract there, this is something for which evidence is required, and I do      not know of any evidence to that effect.<\/p>\r\n<p>End      quote. <em>Liqa&rsquo; al-Baab al-Maftooh<\/em>, 167\/17&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Rather      some of the fuqaha&rsquo; regarded it as mustahabb to do the marriage contract in      the mosque for the sake of the barakah (blessing) of the place, and so that      the news of the marriage would become widely known, and some of them also      based this on the da&lsquo;eef hadeeth that speaks of that.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>See:     <em>al-Mawsoo&lsquo;ah al-Fiqhiyyah<\/em>, 37\/214, 41\/221&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>See      also the answer to question no. <a href=\"http:\/\/islamqa.info\/en\/132420\">132420<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Similarly, many people nowadays think that it is mustahabb, because if the      marriage contract is done in the mosque, this will prevent many of the      actions that are contrary to Islamic teachings, but usually happen if the      marriage contract is done somewhere other than in the mosque, such as haraam      mixing of the sexes, smoking, listening to music and other things that are      prohibited.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>With      regard to the question of where the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be      upon him) did the marriage contract for his daughters, this is something for      which we do not know of any evidence in the reports. It does not seem that      the location of that was something that people at that time attached any      importance to, which would make them want to find out about it and transmit      it to us. Rather that happened &ndash; as would appear to be the case &ndash; in their      ordinary gatherings or in their houses or wherever they happened to be, and      we have not found any report that speaks specifically about that.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>And      Allah knows best.<\/p>\r\n<\/span><\/div>\r\n<div style=\"padding: 3px; padding-right: 6px; text-align: right;\">Islam Q&amp;A<\/div>","status":1,"created_at":"2015-02-04T21:51:58.000000Z","updated_at":"2015-02-04T21:51:58.000000Z","language_id":1,"fatawacate_id":37,"parent_id":9372,"author_id":"","books":[],"articles":[],"videos":[],"audios":[],"author_name":"","category_name":"\u0623\u062d\u0643\u0627\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0646\u0643\u0627\u062d","category_slug":"","get_date":"2015-02-04"},"translations":[],"fatawa_books":[],"fatawa_articles":[],"fatawa_videos":[],"fatawa_audios":[],"url":"http:\/\/www.islamland.com\/eng\/api\/fatawas\/9373"}
