Mcdonald fries if they are fried in a separate oil pan and separate utensils are used with barely no contamination. Are they halal?

Answer

Shari'ah has emphasised on exercising precaution in Halaal and Haraam. If any outlet sells Haraam items as well, one should abstain as such an outlet cannot be trusted.

If the outlet sells only Halaal and is supervised by a trustworthy Muslim, then one may eat from there.

And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
