The questioner : From the Yemen Arab Republic, we received this message from the sender Ahmad Ali Yahya al-Ghafari, in which he asks: What is the ruling on letting food scraps flow down the drains into the gardens after cleaning the utensils used for eating? We ask for guidance in this matter. May Allah guide you?
The Shaykh : If the utensils are cleaned of food remnants, there is nothing wrong with washing them in a place where the water flows into the drains or the like, because there is no mixing of the food with these impurities. If there is no such mixing, then there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
The questioner : Yes.
