The Benefactors' Participation in Building the Mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, many people are unable to bear the full cost of building a mosque, and they wish to participate with a small amount, but some benefactors refuse to let anyone else share in the construction of the mosque. What is the opinion on this?
Answer:
There are many mosques, or one is required to go to another mosque. If the person in charge of the mosque refuses and wants it to be entirely from his own funds, do not trouble him; go to another mosque.
