Question
The issue I was crying about stems at a body corporate meeting, where this Jamaat gang controls the vote. I had a flat in the complex. The Molana of the Musjid also has two flats in this block. He was caught by a Hindu stealing electricity from the garage! And he is the chief imam of the Musjid. Can I make my Salaat behind this thief?
Answer
The theft of the electricity from the garage is obviously haraam. The thief has usurped the rights of the other tenants who all share to pay the electricity bill of the block of flats. Nevertheless, Salaat behind even a faasiq is valid. Someone should proffer naseehat to the Imaam to induce him to make good the rights of the tenants he has usurped.
