Prohibiting food in the residence and revoking the ID card

The questioner : Your Eminence the Shaykh. One of those who invites me and every student in this residence to speak to Your Eminence about some of the harassment we experience in the residence from some of the administrators. I mention among this, after acknowledging the benefit of this university in all fields, for example, the prohibition of bringing food into the residence, and the strictness in some dealings, such as revoking the ID card when a mistake occurs that any student or any ordinary person might make. In summary, what I am saying is that we are appealing to you, O honorable Shaykh, to urge the administrators to be lenient with us within reasonable limits. I also ask the question reader to display this question; rather, I ask him by Allah. May peace be upon you. Hmm.

The Shaykh : So, I am the one who says.

The questioner : If there is a cafeteria.

The Shaykh : As for prohibiting food, perhaps there is good in that, so that you save your money, because if the door were opened, people would compete in the food they bring in, and the student would have no concern other than bringing in the best food. So in its prohibition, I see benefit, as long as there is a cafeteria inside the residence that is sufficient. We are done with this. As for revoking the ID card, in my opinion, the ID card is not revoked unless there is something from the student that cannot be tolerated, and whenever it is possible to rectify his situation without revoking the ID card, that is what is followed, is it not? Good, then there is no problem now, praise be to Allah.
