Question

I have heard from my elders that if someone invites us then we have the obligation to research whether his income is halaal or haram. So my question is, is it obligatory to research whether his income is halaal or not?

Answer

If he is a very doubtful character then you should research.

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.
