Smoke detectors may be required in any new construction or in any house that is used for anything beyond a one or two-family dwelling, or if it is rented to non-family members.
Other local regulations may apply differently, depending upon where the house is located and what standards or ordinances have been adopted.
"yes i think its a law"
It's yes and no. It depends in which country you are living in. If you live in the U.S.A or Europe then yes you do as it is a law, but if you live in some countries in Africa than no its not a requirement.
It is not the law in the UK and many countries in Europe.
Some states in the USA do not require smoke detectors, and some (such as in the New Hampshire Fire Code) only require an "automatic fire warning device" to be installed in one or two-family dwellings if "built or substantially rehabilitated after January 1, 2010" or if it is a rental unit.
All houses should have smoke detectors. The bricks may be fireproof, but there isn't much else in a house that is. The smoke from burning furniture can kill you, regardless of the materials that the house is made from.
Ideally, a smoke detector for every room should be in place.
