Distributing food leftovers to animals and the needy

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
She says: Regarding food leftovers, some people put them in a cardboard box or something similar and place them on the street for animals to eat.

Answer:
It should be placed in a pure location for animals and dogs to eat. However, if the food is clean and good, the best thing is to give it to the needy, to those in need of food. There is an association that takes surplus food from feasts. From there, if the food is plentiful and good, one can contact the association, and they will come and take it from him to distribute it to the needy.
