٩۔ سُورَةُ التوبَة

9.4 Polytheists are forbidden to be the caretakers of Masājid.

٩۔٤ مقطع في سُورَةُ التوبَة

quran:9:17

It is not for the polytheists to maintain the mosques of Allah ˹while˺ witnessing against themselves with disbelief. ˹For˺ those, their deeds have become worthless, and in the Fire they will abide eternally.  

It is not for the idolaters to attend God’s places of worship (masājid, is also read in the singular, masjid), entering them or sitting in them, bearing witness, against themselves, to unbelief; those, their works have failed, ˹their works˺ are invalid, and in the Fire they shall abide.
القرآن:٩:١٧

مَا كَانَ لِلْمُشْرِكِينَ أَنْ يَعْمُرُوا مَسَاجِدَ اللَّهِ شَاهِدِينَ عَلَىٰ أَنْفُسِهِمْ بِالْكُفْرِ ۚ أُولَٰئِكَ حَبِطَتْ أَعْمَالُهُمْ وَفِي النَّارِ هُمْ خَالِدُونَ  

{ما كان للمشركين أن يعمُروا مَسْجِدَ الله} بالإفراد والجمع بدخوله والقعود فيه {شاهدين على أنفسهم بالكفر أولئك حبطت} بطلت {أعمالهم} لعدم شرطها {وفي النار هم خالدون}.
quran:9:18

The mosques of Allah are only to be maintained by those who believe in Allah and the Last Day and establish prayer and give zakah and do not fear except Allah, for it is expected that those will be of the ˹rightly˺ guided.  

Only he shall attend God’s places of worship who believes in God and the Last Day, and observes prayer, and pays the alms, and fears none but God alone; it may be that those will be among the rightly guided.
القرآن:٩:١٨

إِنَّمَا يَعْمُرُ مَسَاجِدَ اللَّهِ مَنْ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَأَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ وَآتَى الزَّكَاةَ وَلَمْ يَخْشَ إِلَّا اللَّهَ ۖ فَعَسَىٰ أُولَٰئِكَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا مِنَ الْمُهْتَدِينَ  

{إنما يعمُر مساجد الله من آمن بالله واليوم الآخر وأقام الصلاة وآتى الزكاة ولم يخش} أحدا {إلا الله فعسى أولئك أن يكونوا من المهتدين}.
