If a person's earnings are forbidden, is it permissible to accept his invitation?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : The questioner says: Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
And I say: And upon you be peace, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
If a person's earnings are forbidden, for example, and he has a shop selling song tapes, and he invites you, is it permissible to accept his invitation or not? Please inform us.
It is permissible to accept the invitation of one whose wealth is forbidden. However, if it is in the interest not to accept, such that if he knows that people are boycotting eating at his place, he will repent from this, then do not accept it. But if everyone is in the same situation, there is no harm in accepting it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) accepted the invitation of the Jews, and they were eating illicit gains.
