Are the leftovers of a ghayr mehram permissible?
Question
Respected Mufti, Is it permissible for one to partake of the leftovers of a ghayr mehram, be it food or water? Also, is my husband's step-father my mehram?
Answer
1. In a general situation, there is no prohibition for a Ghayr Mahram (not prohibited in marriage) males and females to partake of one another's left over food or water. The ruling for specific situations may differ. 2. Your husband's step-father is not your Mahram.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
