Question: What is the ruling on hosting guests if a man builds a new house?
Answer: There is nothing [wrong] in it and it is not prohibited nor an innovation. This is what is from the customs of the people. They host guests out of joy of a building a new house and honoring their brothers. There is nothing [wrong] in this.
