May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is your view on eating with this spoon? Is it imitating the disbelievers, or is there no harm in it?

It is permissible to eat with a spoon. They say that the first person to eat with a spoon was Ibrahim (peace be upon him), so there is nothing wrong with that, especially if one needs it. Even if one does not need it, there is nothing wrong with eating with it.
