Muslim woman sharing her left over food items with her Hindu neighbour
Question
Can a Muslim woman share her left over food items with her Hindu neighbour?
Answer
If the neighbour doesn't have food and she wishes to assist her, then this is permissible. However, it should be borne in mind that Muslims should not befriend the kuffaar and have close ties with them.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
