Question

Recently there has been a trend of using monitors in masjids to show presentations and sometimes even videos. Even without videos or pictures isn’t this something very disliked?

Answer

If there are no animate pictures or sounds then too it is appropriate that it is kept out of the musjid so that it does not disrupt the functions of the musjid.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
