Buying an apartment with a swimming pool and gym
Question
Dear Mufti
Assalamualeikum, My dad wants to buy a flat having a swimming pool and a gym. We will then have to pay monthly contribution for the maintenance of this.
Is it permissible to buy such a flat?
Jazakallah
Answer
Wa’alaykum as Salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu,
Yes, it is permissible to purchase such a flat, and to contribute towards the communal swimming pool and gym.
And Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala knows best.
