Question:
Regarding a musalla in which only one obligatory prayer is performed, is it measured by the standard of a mosque?
Answer:
If it is built for worship, it is a mosque, even if only the Zuhr prayer or another prayer is performed in it. However, if it is a musalla like those found in some government offices, it does not have the ruling of mosques. These musallas in offices do not have the ruling of mosques; rather, they are just one of the rooms in which they pray.
Q: Is it called a musalla or a mosque?
