Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Shaykh. He says: I have a rest area, and I and my children have set aside a portion of it, making it a mosque where I and my children pray when we are in the rest area, and any Muslim who wishes may also pray in it. Does this set-aside portion have the ruling of a mosque?
Answer:
If it is exclusive to the rest area, and does not have a door open to the street where passersby and neighbors pray in it, but is only for those inside the farm, then it is an annex to the farm and does not become an endowment.
