Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner from France says: Sometimes some deviant groups come to us asking for financial assistance to build a mosque specifically for them. Is it permissible for us to help them with that?
Answer:
If the mosque is one in which bid'ah (religious innovations) and shirk (associating partners with Allah) are practiced, do not help them. That is not a mosque; that is a shrine, not a mosque. What is built for bid'ah and newly invented matters is not a mosque. Yes.
