The Ruling on Praying in Front of an Electric Heater
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman inquiring, Honorable Shaykh, if there is no mud, if the rain stops, I do not find that there is mud on the ground, it is pleasant. May Allah reward you. Finally, this questioner, Umm Abdullah, has a question. She asks about praying in front of the heater and the fire on cold days, Honorable Shaykh? By Allah, the heater is not fire; it is electricity, like the light bulb, the lamp.
Answer:
What is in front of the one praying is not a problem. This heater is essentially a light bulb; they call it a light bulb or a reflector, so it is of the same kind. May Allah reward you and bless you.
