Question
Is it permissible to eat the bunny rabits made of milk chocolate?
Answer
Bunny rabbit chocolates are associated with the easter festival. Since the easter festival is based on kufr beliefs and customs, it is essential for a Muslim to refrain from eating these chocolates. Refer to http://muftionline.co.za/node/282
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
