Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: What is the best method I should follow in calling the non-Muslims who work with me to Islam, and is it permissible for them to eat with me and for me to give them charity?
Answer:
Yes, there is nothing wrong with eating; you eat with them, and they eat with you from what is permissible. Giving them from the zakah is not permissible, but giving from voluntary charity is fine, especially if this serves to encourage them toward Islam. Yes.
