Ruling on transferring an endowment from a mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His Eminence the Shaykh: Is it permissible to transfer an endowment dedicated to a mosque, such as a wheelbarrow, if the mosque is crowded and it has no need for it?
Yes.
It is permissible to transfer an endowment if that is what is better. If the mosque no longer needs an item, such as a mattress, a wheelbarrow, or something else, we transfer it to another specific mosque if possible. If that is not possible, we sell these items and spend the proceeds on the mosque. As for if it is from the endowments, the endowments are the ones that manage that and do what is best.
Yes.
