Title: Food cooked at non Muslim restaurants
Post by: miracle114 on January 06, 2018, 04:54:54 PM

Salaam
So, I have been to a few Hindu restaurants in my time.
Recently I sauntered up to the counter to pay and behind the cashier my eye caught sight of 5 maybe six framed images of ganesh and others all garlanded by pretty flower wreaths.
I felt extremely uncomfortable and the verse about not dedicating the food you slaughter to other than Allah came to mind. There would have been no slaughtering in a veg Hindu restaurant (well apart from the dessert on my plate :)
Is food prepared by polytheists haraam?

Kind regards

Food prepared by non Muslims is not haram but the non vegetables items should be Hala & Zabiha.
