A Woman Cleaning the Mosque Following the Example of the Black Woman

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: A woman who lives next to the mosque asks the imam to allow her to clean the mosque after all the men have left, following the example of that woman. She insists on this. His question is: Do you see it permissible to allow her?

The Shaykh:
Mosques now have servants and employed staff, so they do not need this. This applies to mosques that do not have anyone to attend to their service.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
But if you see something fallen in the mosque, or if you take from the mosque a cup or something harmful, you take it for the reward in that.
