Feeding the Sinful Man and the Ruling of Disliking Him
A woman has a friend whose husband is very sinful; he has not left any sin uncommitted and does not pray. What is the ruling on her feeding him from their food? And what is the ruling on her telling her husband that she does not like to feed him because he is not pious?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is permissible to feed him, and perhaps by being kind to him he will be guided, and God knows best.
