The ruling on taking money endowed for the construction of a mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: My father (may Allah have mercy on him) gave me approximately forty thousand to contribute to the foundations of a mosque, and I took ten thousand from it without his knowledge to help a friend of mine who has no job. What is the ruling? Is this permissible?

Answer:
This is not permissible. You must pay back the ten thousand. You pay it from your own wealth and carry out what your father told you to do. Yes.
