The ruling states that the talk should be delivered in a dedicated space, such as a room or hall built for that purpose. This is to avoid disturbing other congregants who are praying or engaged in other acts of worship in the main prayer area.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Hendaklah dibina sebuah tempat khusus seperti bilik atau dewan khusus untuk menyampaikan tazkirah bagi mengelak dari mengganggu jemaah lain yang sedang solat dan sebagainya.
