Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

Assalam o alykum, dear brother

As im reading everyday mails from ur side. And this really good thing to improve our islamic knowledge.

My question is:

While making the house, is there any restrictions to make entry in house from any side (ie. frm east, west, north & south)

Waiting for your favourable reply.

Wassalam;

Answer:

Enter house which side

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

Your Question: While making the house, is there any restrictions to make entry in house from any side (ie. frm east, west, north & south)

Beloved brother in Islam, the East, West, North, South all belong to Allah Subhanah, and there is absolutely no restriction in Shariah if one wishes to build the entry to their houses from whichever side they wish, or is convenient for them.

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

Burhan
