Is it allowed or is it good to give charity to strangers asking for money outside and inside the masjid?

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

It is permissible. [1] However the management of the masjid should also be consulted.
