The Ruling on Participating in the Disbelievers' Festivals and Eating Their Food

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a questioner from Britain who says: How do I advise my family, who participate in the disbelievers' festivals, the year-end festivals? And what is the ruling on eating the food prepared for these festivals?

Answer:
It is not permissible to eat the food they prepared for their festivals, because this constitutes approval of what they did and encouragement of them in this act. It is obligatory for you to keep away from them, to keep away from their festivals and their gatherings. Yes.
