The Ruling on Temporarily Designating a Mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If something happens in the mosque, such as its being handed over, and one of the worshippers prays in a place, or delays the prayer there temporarily, does this make it a mosque? No.
Answer:
If his intention is temporary, until the mosque is finished so it can be built, then it does not become a mosque, because he did not intend it to be a permanent place of worship, but rather a temporary one. Therefore, it does not cease to be his property, nor does it become a mosque, because this depends on the intention.
