Question:
This brother Abu Tamam says: If I rent my house to a person to live in it, do I have the right to stipulate that he not rent it to another person whom I do not approve of, and that he not use it for any forbidden means?

Answer:
Yes, you may stipulate that he not rent him out to another person you do not approve of, and that he not use him for sin. You have this right, based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)
