_ living islam : Islamic tradition _ https://www.livingislam.org/ Haram food and friends Q: I have a question since i live amongst kafirs at university. Is it a sin if I lend my phone to a friend who wants to order food (likely to be haram food)? A: There are so many verses and hadiths pertaining to right and wrong companionship. Since "a person follows the religion of his friend" then the only justification for such a relationship is that it will and must be the unbeliever element that eventually follows the other's religion. The latter must therefore have a clear goal in mind, lay down rules, and lead in the best way rather than go with flow. Was-Salam, GF Haddad 2009-01-22
