Question:
A questioner says: What is the ruling on building mosques in the places where the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed, whether in agreement or during his travels?

Answer:
This is not permissible. It is not permissible to target the places where the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed and build upon them. This is not permissible. It causes fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) among people and leads to shirk (associating partners with Allah). Seeking blessing (tabarruk). Yes.
