Can Zakat Mal be for the Construction of a Mosque?

Assalamualaikum.

Ustadz, I want to ask a question.

If zakat mal (zakat on assets) is included for the construction of a mosque, is it okay?

Thank you, Ustadz.

Greetings, Sri Wahyuni

ANSWER:

Wassalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarokaatuh.

For the construction of a mosque, it is better to use waqf and infaq funds. Because zakat already has a designation, namely for the 8 ashnaf (groups) that have been determined.

Wallâhu a'lam bish-showâb.

Regards!
