Question:
Another questioner says: My grandmother is old and does not know anything, and she has a sum of money with me. Is it permissible for my mother to spend it on building a mosque?
Answer:
No, her wealth must be preserved. An agent is appointed to preserve her wealth, and the zakah is paid from it every year, and it is increased if possible. When she dies, it becomes an estate for the heirs. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
