TV screen in the musjid

Question

I have question regarding photography in the masjid. Nowadays we see in our country that there is a big screen inside the masjid in which we can see the imam who is delivering a bayan, etc. I want to know if that is correct?

Secondly I have heard that if there is an animated object where salah is perform than your salah will be makrooh? Is this correct?

Answer

1. This is forbidden.

2. Yes.

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