The answer

If a worshiper's ablution (wudu') breaks while they are in the mosque, and they leave to perform ablution in a nearby or connected place, it is recommended for them to repeat the "Tahiyyat al-Masjid" (greeting of the mosque) upon re-entering. This is the view preferred by some scholars, such as Al-Nawawi and Sheikh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, who believe that the greeting of the mosque is recommended every time a Muslim enters the mosque, even if their entry is repeated within the same hour.
