I have received a box of chocolates as a gift. One of the ingredients is Alcohol. Please advise if I should throw away the chocolates or is it permissible to give them to a Non Muslim
Answer :
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh It is not permissible to give any consumable item containing haraam ingredients to anyone, including non-Muslims. In fact, the Shari’ah has instructed us that Haraam food cannot be given to any creation, not even to animals. One should totally discard and dispose of such items. الفتاوى الهندية - (5 / 341 رشيدية) ولا يسقي أباه الكافر خمرا ولا يناوله القدح ويأخذ منه الفتاوى الهندية - (5 / 411 رشيدية) ولا يسقى الصبي والذمي والإثم على من سقاهما هكذا في الغياثية الهداية شرح البداية - (4 / 113 المكتبة الإسلامية) ولا أن يسقى ذميا ولا أن يسقى صبيا للتداوي والوبال على من سقاه وكذا لا يسقيها الدواب تبيين الحقائق - (6 / 49 دار الكتب الإسلامي ( ولا أن يسقي ذميا ولا صبيا والوبال لمن سقاه وكذا لا يسقيها الدواب And Allah knows best Wassalamu Alaikum Ml.
