Salafs sayings

Abu ad-Dardaa narrated [Saheeh Muslim, No.6588]: The Messenger of Allaah said: «No believing servant supplicates for his brother behind his back (in his absence), except that the Angels say: "The same be for you too".»
al-Imaam an-Nawawee comments [Riyaadh as-Saaliheen #1494]: This hadeeth makes it evident that one who prays for someone in his absence also stands to benefit from it because the angel appointed for the task of praying for those who pray for others will pray for him, saying, "O Allaah! Grant him also the same which he has asked for others".

Praying Behind the one who Smokes or Shaves his Beard

 


Question:

Esteemed Shaykh may Allaah grant you that which is better, what is your opinion regarding an Imaam that smokes or one that shaved his beard?
Answer:

The issue of praying behind the one who shaves, that which is correct, is that the prayer behind the sinful one (Faasiq) is correct because there is no proof removing the validity of the Imaamah of the sinful Imaam. However, there is no doubt that it is not permissible for the one who is in authority to place in the mosques one who is sinful and an open sinner. And it is also correct if one was to find a mosque wherein the Imaam possessed Taqwa that is not with this one (the sinful Imaam) and goes to it.
Shaykh Muhammad bin Saalih al-`Uthaymeen
