The answer

Teaching the Book of Allah in mosques is among the best acts of drawing closer to Allah. Young people should seek permission from the person in charge of the mosque, especially if their stay extends beyond prayer times, in order to maintain the mosque. If the young people are diligent in preserving the mosque, then no one has the right to prevent people from it, for mosques are not private property belonging to anyone; rather, they belong to Allah Almighty. Allah the Exalted says: "And that the mosques are for Allah, so do not invoke with Allah anyone."
