Donating items to a musalla

Q: I would like to know if one made an intention to give sadqah to poor people only. Later on he decides to sponsor some items to a musallah. Can he use the sadqah money to purchase these items ? Note that he might even use the items.

A: Yes

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
