All Masjids are belongs to Allah. there is no salafi sunni thableeg jamath Masjid in the world. If one calls it by the name of the group then it may belongs to the group and may not be to Allah and may be name sake. The one who pelts stone to the Masjid will not be a Muslim. either he is Mushrik or Non Beleiver.

If that is a Sunni mosque, the one who pelted stone must be a Salafi.
