Is it permissible for a man to warn others that a certain person's wealth is forbidden so that they do not eat from it?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : We can also say that... if... it is food... it is obligatory for you before you eat it to warn, and your silence and eating are a form of approval.

The Shaykh : Yes, meaning the issue of giving advice.

The questioner : What a person says, meaning "this is food..." he says "I ate and left," meaning it may be a form of approval.

The Shaykh : In any case, yes, it is necessary to address this important issue that the brother Ahmad mentioned. It is necessary that we warn this man and say that this is forbidden and it is not permissible to eat from it, because you acquired it through a forbidden means. But sometimes a person is unable to use such an expression at such a time or in such a situation, and for every occasion there is a specific discourse, and giving advice is obligatory in all cases.
