If you eat with someone who consumes haram, do you commit a sin?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Now, long may you live, the second question: People have become careless about consuming haram. They take the rights of so-and-so, the rights of so-and-so, and the rights of so-and-so, and they delay paying so-and-so, so-and-so, and so-and-so. They have wealth, what Allah wills, and among them are those with whom we mix. Is it permissible for us to eat with them, or is it haram?

The Shaykh : Eating with them is permissible, and the sin is upon them.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : Except if

The questioner : your boycotting them leads to their repentance from consuming haram, then do not eat from them.

The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
