Like I said earlier as long as the integrity of the building isn't changed, good luck to 'em, as long as it's not another McDonalds.

Here in New Jersey, we would not even consider that a change in use. Just a change in ownership. There would be no legal reason whatsoever to prevent the takeover of a place of worship by another religion.
In our cities here, there are a number of churches and synagogues that have been convertd to mosques, as the local community has changed.
I'm all for more great pubs in the UK, fewer McDs.
