The Ruling on Giving the Disbelievers Meat From the Sacrificial Animals
Question :
What is the ruling on giving a non-Muslim some of the meat of the sacrificial animals? Some of our scholars have permitted it, while others have not. In our country, we are a community of Muslims living next to disbelievers in the continent, and we do not know what is the ruling on that, should we give them meat from the sacrificial animals or not? And (should we give them) from all of our charities?
Answer:
It is permissible for the Muslim to give food and clothes. and the like to his relative and his neighbor, even from the meat of the sacrificial animal. He may also give charity to them, if they are poor, in order to maintain family ties and to fulfill the rights of his neighbor, and to incline their hearts (towards Islam). Allah, Most High says:
"But if they (both) strive with you to make you join in worship with Me others that of which you have no knowledge, then obey them not; but behave with them in the world kindly, and follow the path of him who turns to Me in repentance and in obedience."
And He says:
"Allah does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who fought not against you on account of religion nor drove you out of your homes. Verily, Allah loves those who deal with equity."
It has been confirmed from the Prophet that he ordered Asma' bint Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with her, to keep
relations with her mother and she was a disbeliever at that time..
And 'Umar bin Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, gave a gift of clothing to a relative who was a disbeliever. Nothing has been confirmed in the Islamic Law to prevent that, and the basic principle is one of permissibility. But the disbelievers should not be given Zakah, except in order to incline their hearts (towards Islam).
