Assisting a non-Muslim lady
Question
I wanted to ask if helping a non Muslim/Hindu whose husband is dead with financial help, does Islam allow this for me?
Answer
Shariah commands us to refrain from all areas of doubt and suspicion. Therefore you should not have any dealings with this woman or communicate with her. There are many poor Muslim and non-Muslim men who are in need of financial assistance. If you wish you may assist them
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
