Is it permissible to eat from the tables in the Haram for one who is not in need?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a person to eat from the tables set up for breaking the fast for those fasting in the Haram, knowing that he is not in need of it?

Answer:
Yes, this is food offered to those fasting, and even the wealthy person has a reward if he breaks his fast there. If he breaks his fast, there is a reward for the owner of the food, even if the one breaking his fast is wealthy. So this is permissible for everyone to eat from, as long as the owner has not said, "No one may eat from this except the poor." Yes.
