Offering food to a person who is not fasting during Ramadhan
Question
My friend came to my house during Ramadhan. He was not fasting due to some illness. Should I offer him food or not because it was Ramadhan?
Answer
You should not offer food. You do not only need to fast, but you also need to respect the fasting person and to openly break the law of Allah Ta`ala is really an invitation to His wrath and anger.
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.
