The ruling on praying in a mosque built with forbidden money

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a mosque is built with money from riba (usury or interest), do we pray in it?

Answer:
If you know that it was built with money from riba and other forbidden sources, do not pray in it; because it is not permissible to use forbidden money in building mosques or anything else. Yes.
