Residence in Mecca: Difference between revisions

'''Residency in Mecca''' refers to [[residency]] or permanent settlement in [[Mecca]]; meaning that individuals have made Mecca their permanent home. According to some narrations, the prominent Imami scholars have deemed residency in Mecca to be [[Makruh|reprehensible]], while others have considered it [[Mustahab|recommended]].

The [[Taklifi ruling]] on residency in Mecca is also a matter of disagreement among Sunni jurists. The leaders of the [[Hanafis]] and [[Malikis]] have ruled it reprehensible; however, some [[Shafi'is]] and [[Hanafis]] consider residency in Mecca to be [[Mustahab]] if there is no fear of committing sins or disrespecting the [[Kaaba|House of God]].
