Summary
The surau is permitted to undergo repairs until a contrary declaration is made. Old fittings should be kept for the surau's future use once repairs are complete, and if not needed they are to be offered to nearby mosques or suraus, then to madrasahs, balai surau, student hostels or Islamic welfare centres. If no one needs them and keeping them would damage the items, risk their loss or there is no storage, they may be sold and the proceeds used to buy lasting items for the surau so as to preserve the purpose of the endowment.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
