Disposing of the remaining funds from the construction of a mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner from outside the country says: My father passed away while he was overseeing the construction of a mosque. The mosque has been completed, and a sum of money remains. His question is: Is this amount restricted to this mosque, so that I should use it for its maintenance, or should I spend it on building another mosque, without monopolizing this money?
Answer:
If the mosque needs it, it remains for the mosque's needs. However, if the mosque does not need it, and the Ministry, for example, handles its maintenance and affairs, and it does not need it, then you may dispose of it by building another mosque. Yes.
