Living in a street where there is a temple

Q: Can we shift our house to a street were there is a temple?

A: It is permissible. But the better the surrounding the greater the barkat and goodness. If there are going to be temples, churches and places of vice and sin around, proportionately the barkat will be decreased.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
