During the Month of Ramadhan, our Moulana allowed a beardless haafiz to be the Imaam for the Isha' Fardh.

Question

During the Month of Ramadhan, our Moulana allowed a beardless haafiz to be the Imaam for the Isha' Fardh. What is the Shariah's ruling?

Answer

The Moulana is guilty of perpetrating a haraam act. It is haraam to appoint a faasiq to lead the Salaat. The trustees and the musallis should object. It is clear that this 'moulana' is either a jaahil or a Deen-seller.
