The Ruling on Cooking Food for Condolences
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I want to know how to handle it, Shaykh? It is a sacrifice in the form of a redha.
The Shaykh:
There is nothing wrong with it.
The questioner:
I mean, the one who cooks it, meaning the one offering condolences.
The Shaykh:
What? Yes, the neighbors, the neighbors or the relatives. Their advice to them; it is said that the deceased is punished because of their advice to the people of the land. The lower ones say, "What is his condition?" The one who feels in his chest, "What is his condition?" feels a loss. Yes.
The presenter:
If Allah wills, if Allah wills. Of course, present, you two.
The Shaykh:
Mm.
