Question:
Salih, may Allah preserve you and bless you. A questioner from Yemen says: In countries that have disasters or wars or refugees, what is the ruling on eating the food provided by organizations, such as flour, oil, and lentils, as well as some of the money provided in the form of aid?
Answer:
If it is designated for specific poor people, it is to be given to them and not eaten, because this is a deprivation of the rights of the needy. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
