Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A person who eats garlic, and it was reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he saidSahih al-Bukhari 7359 so he should not approach our mosque. The scholars mentioned that eating these things is an excuse for missing the Friday prayer and the congregational prayer. The question asks: What about one who eats it constantly and continuously? Is he excused for that?
Answer:
No, he is not excused for that. Rather, if it happens that he ate it and it resulted in a smell, if it happens that he ate it and it resulted in a smell, as long as the bad smell remains, he does not go. But if he persists in this and makes it a habit, this is not permissible. Yes.
