Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He also says, may Allah reward you, what is the ruling on eating with them?
Answer:
Eating with them in what is permissible is fine, but sitting with them is not permissible because they will have a negative influence on you. However, merely gathering for a meal and eating from what is permissible is fine, yes. But do not take them as companions, friends, or associates with whom you feel at ease, yes.
