The ruling on the income from a barbershop
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
A man has a barbershop. Is his income from it forbidden or lawful?
Shaving is permissible, except for shaving the beard. Did we not say that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (If Allah forbids something, He forbids its price) Every forbidden thing makes taking compensation for it forbidden, whether by selling it, renting it out, or otherwise. Even the owner of the shop who rents it to a person who shaves beards is committing a forbidden act.
