Question
In our masjeed's prayer room, management is hanging all kind of islamic Plaque (Takti) with kalemah and allah's name. What is the ruling on doign this type of thing in the masjeed and prayer room (Jammat Khana)? I am from Gujrat India and I have travelled to many city's and vilaages and I have not seen this type of thing in masjeed and madrasa.. People are sayign that in Makkah and mdinah they hang takti so we can do it heare as well.
