Rent the shop to a person who wants

366

Q 3: What is your opinion - May Allah guide you - regarding a person who rents a shop or suchlike to someone who is a photographer or a hairdresser who shaves beards? What is the ruling on taking fees for this job?

A: The general rule is that renting shops is permissible, however if a person knows or seems to know that the renter will use it in a prohibited way such as photography, selling alcohol, shaving beards or other prohibited matters, he will not be allowed to rent it to him.
