Question
Is there an opinion in Halacha that prohibits building the Ark outside the synagogue? That is, like extending a balcony (as done by the Hasidim and Sephardim) so that from the outside it appears there is an additional structure and inside is the holy ark?
Answer
Hello,
There is no problem with this.
