The ruling on renting land for the cultivation of narcotics

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible to rent land so that narcotics are planted in it?

Answer:
It is not permissible to rent something for the purpose of committing a sin. It is not permissible to rent a house to be used as a factory for intoxicants, or as a house for fornication, or as a place for amusement and play, or to rent a house to a bank that uses riba (usury or interest). It is not permissible to rent to one who commits a sin in the rented item, because this is cooperation in sin and aggression. Yes.

Question:
The questioner says: We request clarification on the topic of the niqab for women.

Answer:
It is not permissible to rent out land for the purpose of planting narcotics in it. Narcotics are forbidden. Or planting tobacco in it. Or planting qat in it. These are forbidden things. So he should not rent his land to one who plants these evils in it. Because this is cooperation in sin and aggression. And the rent is forbidden; the rent that he takes in exchange for this forbidden work becomes forbidden for him. Yes.
