Question
- Is it permissible to rent a house / shop to infidels? (And this is based on the fact that most of their earnings are haraam.)
- If I don't want to hire a non-Muslim, how can I talk to the infidels who come to hire me? That is, how do I give them back? (For the sake of humanity, it can't be done on the face) Or should I write clearly on the signboard, "Only for Muslims" and does Islam support such restrictions? 9689735688

There is no problem in renting a house for the infidels or a shop for doing business. Absolutely permissible. There is no need to suffer from inferiority complex or indecision. If he is a pagan neighbor, he will also get the right of the neighbor. It is not permissible to harass him unnecessarily. There is no provision in Islamic law to treat him as an infidel. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) also used to visit sick infidels. So it is completely wrong to think that they should be abused as infidels. Everyone should avoid such an idea. Yes, renting space to build temples, churches, puja mandapas, etc. will not be permissible for any Muslim. But there is no problem in renting a house to infidels to live or open a business. إنما ينهاكم الله عن الذين قاتلوكم في الدين وأخرجوكم من دياركم وظاهروا على إخراجكم أن تولوهم ومن يتولهم فأولئك هم الظالمون • Allah only forbids you to befriend them, those who fought against you on account of religion, has been expelled from the country and helped to drive you. Those who befriend them are the wrongdoers. (Surah Mumtahina, 6) A Jewish teenager used to serve the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). When he fell ill, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) went to see him and invited him to Islam. Then he became a Muslim. (Sahih Bukhari: 585) Do not help one another in sin and transgression. Fear God. Surely Allah is severe in requiting (evil). (Surat al-Ma'ida, 2) 6543922665
