If your landlord burnt his side of the building, he is responsible for the repairs. If your side of the building is uninhabitable, you may be able to move out under the legal theory of constructive eviction. See below link and contact a tenants' union/tenants' rights group or attorney in your area for more specific info on your state's laws. Also see below link.
