The Ruling on Construction Beyond What Is Needed

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there any condemnation of construction and building in the Sunnah?

Answer:
Construction that exceeds what is needed; as for construction for a need, there is nothing wrong with it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) built his rooms and lived in them, so construction for a need is permissible. It is only construction that exceeds what is needed. Yes.
