As Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh! Insha Allah this finds you close to Allah & in the best of health and Iman.

Question: Is it permissible to talk about worldly matters inside  the masjid and at a time other than the salaat?

Answer: All praise is due to Allaah. It is not permissible to take  the masaajid as places of selling, trading, and their like from the worldly affairs, in which the voices are raised.  Because the masaajid… they were built for the  remembrance of Allaah, recitation of the Qur’aan and  making of the salaat, in them. But it is permissible to  speak a little about worldly matters as long as it does  not distract the reciters (of the Qur’aan) or the one’s  making the salaat. And with Allaah is all tawfeeq. And may the peace  and blessings of Allaah be upon our Prophet  Muhammad and on his family and on his companions.
