I recall when I was younger, a local Masjid made an appeal for Qarz-e-Hasana loan from its congregation.
I don't remember what was said etc, but I recall they were talking about building facilitied for the women, not so far from the mosque. Or it was going to be used by the Masjid.
Anyways, money was donated, the property was purchased and put up for rent! I know of some of the people who donated and were fuming with the committee.
I guess they use the income from that property to help in the maintenance of the Masjid, and Allah knows best, but this sort of thing does happen.
