Eating the food of shias

· 22 Muharram 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I want to ask can a sunni muslim eat food which came from a shia?

Answer

Refrain from this. Shias and Muslims are poles apart. Hence it is not permissible to associate and freely mix with them.

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