Performing salaah behind an imaam who chews tobacco
Question
If any Imam chews tobacco (zarda plan), is my salat complete behind that Imam?
Answer
As long as he is not chewing it in namaaz the namaaz is complete.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
