Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is the rent from his building with multiple apartments haram (forbidden) if he rents it to someone who does not pray in congregation in the mosque, or who installs satellite dishes?
Answer:
Yes, if he rents it to a sinner who abandons prayer in congregation or installs satellite dishes for satellite channels, he has assisted in falsehood, so it is not permissible for him to do so. Yes, he should not rent it to anyone but one who prays, and he must stipulate that he does not install satellite dishes.
