Question: Is it allowed to eat the food of the people of innovation knowing that they made this food for this innovation, like the innovation of Mawlid an-Nabawi?
Answer: “What is obligatory is to notify them to stay away from innovations and to leave off unlawful affairs. It is upon a person not to eat the food which was made for innovated and unlawful affairs”.
