Question

Assalamualaikum, what do Ulama Ikram say about Masle Jail?
The land for the mosque in our colony was left for everyone's share by those who cut the colony. A basement was built with the help of donations and A mosque was built above it. In the basement, without any consultation, the Motamin of the mosque were running a Madrasa, in which the monthly fees taken  and also the absent penalty from the children were charged. But  no hisab -kitab is being given of it whereas the electricity bill is being paid from the donations of the mosque.

Answer 1

In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful

The answer to your question is as follows:

It is not allowable to run a Madrasa or Maktab in a masjid or in its basement without the permission and consultation of the masjid management, and that is the reason why this dispute is happening, so the rector of the madrasa should first get permission from the masjid committee and then run the madrasa or maktab in the premises of Masjid.

And Allah knows best
