Covering up for the neighbor who hears singing from his house
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If my neighbor hears singing from my house at times, and I am the only one who hears it, and he does not accept advice—meaning, I am the only one who hears the sin—does it become obligatory to cover up for him? It is obligatory to cover up for him in this case, provided that only his neighbor hears it?
Answer:
Yes, he should cover for him. However, if he publicizes it in gatherings and in the markets, there is no harm, for everyone who exposes himself.
The presenter:
May Allah bless you,
