Question

Thank you for the answer. I wanted to ask about this: for two weeks in the second month, I couldn't use the office I rented because there was a gas leak outside. Do I need to pay for those weeks? [Note that the landlord is not demanding payment from me and will accept the rabbi's decision].

Answer

Hello Rabbi

There is no need to pay for those weeks when the property was unfit for use.
