Answer:
(Fatwa: 1748/1414/D=1430)
It is not Islamic to decorate mosque on Shab-e-Qadr, and if it is squandering, it will be against Shariah and unlawful. Decorating with donation money is more heinous. By kanzi donation, if you mean the amount collected with the name of iftar, using the amount in decoration and boondi is unlawful.
(2) If the donators intend the amount to be spent in the above-mentioned directions, it is lawful to spend or the donators are informed that their donations are spent in so and so directions.
(3) Why does he collect donations? Was it meant for any necessity related to the mosque or something else? Please, explain and get the statement from the mosque secretary written by his hand and then submit the question again.
