Question:
Is the intended meaning of the imam who establishes the Hajj (the major pilgrimage) the imam of the mosque?

Answer:
By Allah, who said that the imam of the mosque is the one who beautifies it? The general imam is the imam of the Muslims, and not every mosque imam establishes the hudud. May Allah will it, yes.
