[Such niches are] in mosques which Allah has ordered to be raised (24:36)

Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim

In these sacred houses of prayer which Allah had ordained be erected, remembrance applies to Him whose praises are celebrated and whose attributes are extolled morning and evening

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(24:36) (Those who obtain guidance to His light are found) in the houses which He has enjoined to raise up and to mention His name therein. *68 In them such people glorify Him morning and evening

[Such niches are] in mosques which Allah has ordered to be raised meaning

*68) Some commentators have interpreted these "houses" to mean the mosques, and 'raising them' to mean constructing and reverencing them. Some others, however, take them to mean the houses of the believers and 'raising them' to mean raising their moral status. The words "to mention His name therein" seem to refer to the mosques and support the tirst interpretation, but if we look deeper, we see that they support the second interpretation equally well. This is because Divine Law does not confine worship to mosques alone as is the case with the priest-ridden religions where the rituals can only be performed under the leadership of a clergy. ht Islam a house is also a place of worship like the mosque and every man is his own priest. As this Surah mostly contains instructions for ennobling domestic life, we feel that the second interpretation is more in keeping with the context though there is no reason for rejecting the first interpretation. There will be no harm if both the mosques and the houses of the believers are implied here.
