Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
i have a i think silly question but it's one that i need the answer to as i don't believe there is anything wrong with this.
the question is, is there anything wrong with giving fatiha on mithai bought from a hindu shop? i do it all the time and i see nothing wrong with it as it's just food and by giving fatiha on it i would have thought you are making it purer.
but a cousin of mine says you shouldn't as you don't know what they have done with it or how they have prepared it.
as we buy most of our food at non-muslim shops i.e. tesco, sainsburys and so on i don't see the difference in eating bread made in a non-muslim shop and giving fatiha on mithai that is from a non-muslim shop.
please do clarify this for me as i'm slightly confused and would really appreciate the answer to this.
i eagerly await your informed advice and pray that you are in the best of health at all times. Ameen.
