Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Does maintaining the mosque and looking after it after it has been built count as part of building mosques?

Answer:
Because of the failure to prepare, maintain, and sweep the mosques, and so on. Yes. Caring for the mosques includes the construction, and it also includes the maintenance, cleaning, fumigation, and so forth. Yes.
