Summary
Old mosque equipment that is still in good condition should continue to be used. If it is no longer needed, it should first be offered to other mosques or surau that require it. If it is sold afterwards, the proceeds are to be placed in the mosque development fund.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Barang-barang lama yang boleh digunakan hendaklah digunakan dan sekiranya tidak diperlukan hendaklah ditawarkan kepada masjid-masjid atau surau-surau yang memerlukan sebelum dijual dan hasil jualan dimasukkan ke tabung pembangunan masjid.
