The Virtue of Mosques, Their Sanctity and the Reward for Those Who Pray in Them

وَ سَأَلَ عُبَيْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ اَلْحَلَبِيُّ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلْمَسَاجِدِ اَلْمُظَلَّلَةِ يُكْرَهُ اَلْقِيَامُ فِيهَا قَالَ «نَعَمْ وَ لَكِنْ لاَ تَضُرُّكُمُ اَلصَّلاَةُ فِيهَا.
Ubaidullah ibn Ali Al-Halabi asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام about covered (roofed) mosques, whether standing (prayer) in them is disliked. Imam عليه السلام said: "Yes, but praying in them does not harm you."
