Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Can a person become full, be satisfied, but the one-third portion of his stomach is not yet filled?

The Shaykh : No, heh, and what do you say? He asks: Is it possible for him to become full while he has not filled the one-third?

The questioner : No, he filled the one-third.

The Shaykh : He filled the one-third and became full? No, no, he does not become full. Fullness is that the stomach is filled, but some people may not have an appetite, that is...

The questioner : As for the People of the Book, Allah the Exalted knows the belief of the People of the Book, and yet He made their food lawful for us... their belief, and most of their belief is corrupt?

The Shaykh : By His saying, the Exalted:
And do not eat of that upon which the name ولا تأكلوا مما لم يذكر اسم عليه
[Al-An'am 6:121]
and by His saying, the Exalted, in the list of prohibited things:
and that which has been dedicated to other than Allah وما أهل لغير الله به
[Al-Ma'idah 5:3]


The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : No, no, it is general, even for the Christians. Yes, as long as we know that he intended by "Allah" only 'Isa, and its meaning is that he dedicated it to other than Allah.

The questioner : It is known that this is their belief.

The Shaykh : In any case, because they differ; they are several sects.
