If the old mosque is no longer in use, is it permissible to repair it and rebuild it?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : But what if one works on repairing this mosque, rebuilding it anew, and improving it?

The Shaykh : But if this old mosque cannot be used, there is nothing wrong with rebuilding it in a way that provides comfort for the worshippers. In such a case, one should consult the responsible authorities so that people do not tamper with old mosques.
