Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If there is a man who has a foul smell, is it permissible for him to pray alone behind the rows?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible for him to pray alone. However, he should treat the smell with things that remove it or reduce it, or he should wear a mask if the situation requires it. Yes.
