Question

Muslim brothers are disturbing food in the masjid such as dates, rice, fruits, etc. Can we eat them? I am scared as I do not know their intention. What shall I do?

Answer

When these are given then generally it is for thawaab. There is no harm in accepting it.

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.
