Eating from the food of a father who steals

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I have a father who steals and asks me to share a meal with him, and he does not tell me about it until after the time has passed. Is it considered opening the house with haram (forbidden) means?

If you know that this money is haram, whether from stealing or otherwise,

The presenter:
