Making an investigation regarding the income of the person giving the invitation

· 7 Shaʻban 1441 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I have heard from my elders that if someone invites us then we have the obligation to research whether his income is halaal or haram. So my question is, is it obligatory to research whether his income is halaal or not?

Answer

If he is a very doubtful character then you should research.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
