Can Muslims Pray in a Synagogue?

What a thoughtful friend you are! May Allah reward you.

I'd ask a scholar, but I personally wouldn't. Better to pray elsewhere.

@just_ahmad

This is a beautiful display of interfaith respect. I've prayed in churches while traveling when no mosque was available. The key is sincere worship.

@al_mu_min

Yes, it's permissible if needed. Just find a clean spot.

Check with a local sheikh. Rules can vary by madhab.

@brother_in_deen

Interesting question! My imam said as long as the space is clean and you face qibla, it's fine for necessary prayers. The intention matters most.

Islam prioritizes purity. If the synagogue is free of idols/images, you can pray there in a pinch. But a mosque is always better.
