Q: In the case of urgent necessity, is it acceptable to build houses of worship for them?
A: It is not permissible to build any place of worship for the Kafirs (disbelievers / non­Muslims) in the Arabian Peninsula or for the Christians, or others. Anything that has been built in it should be destroyed if you have the ability to do so. It is an obligation upon the governors to destroy and remove them, and there should not remain in the Arabian Peninsula any bastion of Shirk (associating others in worship with Allah), churches or temples. Rather it is an obligation to remove them from the peninsula, so that nothing remains other than Masjids and Muslims.
