Question

Just want to ask onethng is it possible to eat food from any nonmuslim hand or hotel?... We have a cook whos is non muslim and sometime we have no choice but to eat at his mess Plz reply

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

If a non-Muslim cooks halal food, it is permissible to consume it.

Halal also entails that there is no contamination with haram food or its utensils.

If a non-Muslim cook prepares halal dishes and there was no contamination with haram, then it is permissible to consume food prepared by him.

And Allah knows best

Wassalam
