Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, many people build a mosque, and then after forty years or more, it is demolished and another is built. My question is: Does the reward of the first builder continue, or do the rewards stop as soon as it is demolished?
Answer:
His reward continues as long as people benefit from the mosque he built. However, if it is demolished and rebuilt, the reward belongs to the one who built it last and renewed its construction. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
