The Ruling on Praying in Meat Shops

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible to pray in butcher shops where no slaughtering takes place?

Answer:
How can they be butcher shops if no slaughtering takes place? They are not butcher shops unless slaughtering is done in them. As for the shop where meat is sold, the sale of meat, this does not contradict [the ruling]. It is not a slaughterhouse. This is not a slaughterhouse. This is a meat shop. Yes.
