Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. In another question, we have a building with apartments for rent. Is the money we receive halal (lawful) even if the tenant living in it has haram (forbidden) income?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with the rent for apartments and other properties. However, if the tenant uses them for haram (forbidden) matters, for things that are muharram (forbidden), then it is not permissible to rent to him, because this is cooperation in sin and aggression. Yes.
