Fatwa number ( 15040 )
The questioner: He says: Heis overseeing the construction of a mosque, and he has a sum of money collected from people of good for the building costs, but he spent 700 riyals from it on a sacrificial animal and a meal for the workers. Is this permissible, or must he pay the amount out of his own pocket?
A1: There is no blame on you for spending the mentioned amount, as it is for the benefit of the mosque. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
