The ruling on praying behind one who smokes shisha

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is your opinion of one who leads people in prayer, and it becomes clear that he smokes shisha?

Answer:
He should be removed and replaced with a good person, and the prayer is valid—if Allah wills—but he should be replaced with a good person if that is possible. As for if everyone in the village smokes, there is no disagreement on that.
