Assalamu alaykum.

Here in India, a piece of land is owned by the Masjid management committee.

Does the whole land is a masjid?

No.

There are

Toilets, Parking lots, Madrasah, Staff quarters for Imam, Muazzin and other staff, Library, Islamic Center for non-muslims, School, Shops, Offices, Teaching section for ladies; both religious and also teaching them for their livelihood; like, Tailoring, Computer, Embroidery, Arts and Crafts.

Even Basement of Masjid is used for other activities.

And;

A marked prayer hall for men is Masjid.

And I hope that I am correct when I say that Ladies visiting other places owned by the Masjid management except the marked prayer hall are not visiting Masjid.

Can Ulema guide us here.

The whole earth is a Masjid except the cemetery and the toilet.

Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The entire earth has been made a place of prayer (masjid) except for the graveyards and the bathroom.”

Source: Sunan At-Tirmidhi 317

Grade: Sahih (authentic) according to Ibn Taymiyyah

عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْأَرْضُ كُلُّهَا مَسْجِدٌ إِلَّا الْمَقْبَرَةَ وَالْحَمَّامَ

317 سنن الترمذي كِتَاب الصَّلَاةِ صفة الصلاة بَاب مَا جَاءَ أَنَّ الْأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا مَسْجِدٌ إِلَّا الْمَقْبَرَةَ وَالْحَمَّامَ

@Br Abu Mohammed

This privilege is confined to this ummah that we can pray the salah anywhere except these 2 places as other ummah of the past prophets a.s had to pray the salah ONLY in masjid;

Here what Br ahmad sharif refers to is the specific place for salah where people can pray 5 times salah.

May Allah SWT grant you barakah in your Ilm

I am referring to a place where there are certain aadaab and virtues. And one cannot enter in a state when ghusl is fardh on him (junbee)
