Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
The imam of a mosque must be a pious and pious scholar. But if an Imam Sahib watches and listens to TV etc. programs, then surely he is a transgressor and a sinner. And if he is acquitted for the transgressor, it is makrooh tahrimi to lead the prayers until he repents and for the worshipers to pray behind him. In this case, it is imperative for the mosque committee to dismiss the person from the Imamate until the sign of repentance is manifested (that is, until the conduct of the said sin is avoided and the fear of God is observed in the conduct). If Khalis repents, it will be permissible to keep him as Imam. 5271135825
