Question:
May Allah reward you. The other question in this episode is from Badr al-Yami from Jeddah. He says: There is a small mosque, and a large mosque has been built opposite it. Is it better for the small mosque to remain, or not? And is it better for the one who prays in the small mosque to continue, or to pray in the large mosque because of the large number of worshippers?
Answer:
This is a matter for the department responsible for mosques, which is the Ministry of Islamic Affairs and Endowments, to look into. They will examine the situation of the two mosques and do what is best, if Allah wills. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah bless you,
