Ask an Alim

My sister

Q:

Salam alekuym
I have a question about prayer, my sister is married to a man who smokes hash in their home. Is it permissible to pray the obligatory prayers in that house? I know it is haram to take drugs, InshaAllah he gets the strength to struggle with it.

A:

Wa Alaykumussalam

Thank you for your query.

Hash(Hashish) is haram to consume but isn’t najis.

There is no problem in praying in that house.

There are places where praying is mustahab, Makruh or haram.

Places where performing prayers is disapproved (makrūh): https://www.sistani.org/english/book/48/2215/
