The ruling on one who buys meat from a restaurant that sells pork while forgetting

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, another man knows that this restaurant sells nothing but pork. One day he went to buy from it, and when he ate the meat, he remembered that it was pork. Do I have any meat?

Answer:
If he was forgetting, if he bought it while forgetting and did not know it was pork, and did not realize that this restaurant sells pork, this is like the women:
Our Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we haveرَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِن نَّسِينَا أَوْ
[Al-Baqarah 2:286]
We cut it off. But if he remembers before he eats it, he should discard it and throw it away. As for if he does not remember until after he has eaten it, he is not held accountable. Yes.
