The ruling on praying around a fire for warmth
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih also has a question. He says: My work is in the cold, and sometimes in the winter the cold becomes severe. I light a fire and pray in its warmth, and it is sometimes behind me, or to my left, or to my right. What is the ruling on that? Please inform us, may Allah preserve you?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, as long as it is not in front of you. There is nothing wrong with that, and you may warm yourself by it and pray around it, provided it is not in front of you in your qiblah. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
