Question<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Can a Muslim eat at a non-Muslim friend’s house knowing that they consume pork? What is the ruling in Islam?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is not haram to eat with non-Muslims but the following should be kept in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. There should be no alcohol served on the same table.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It is narrated from Umar bin al-Khattab that messenger of Allah said;- Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him not sit at a table where alcohol is being passed around.[i]<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Men and women should not be mixed in one place.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

       <\/p>\n

      \u00a0 \u00a0 3. Food should be halal.<\/span><\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      So, if these rules are met you can eat with non-Muslims.<\/span><\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      Only Allah knows best.<\/span><\/p>\n

      [i]<\/a> \u00a0Musnad Ahmad, Musnad `Umar b. al-Khattab:- Al-Qasim bin Abil-Qasim as-Saba’i narrated from a preacher who was addressing the troops in al-Qustanteeniyyah, that he heard him narrate that Umar bin al-Khattab\u00a0 said:<\/span><\/p>\n

      O people, I heard the Messenger of Allah \ufdfa say: `Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him not sit at a table where alcohol is being passed around; whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him not enter a bathhouse unless he is wearing a waist wrapper; and whoever (among women) believes in Allah and the Last Day, let her not enter bathhouses (at all).\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
