prey to satanic whispers because of being unaware of religious knowledge.
My master A’la Hadrat, Imam Ahmad Raza Khan عَـلَيْهِ رَحْمَةُ الـرَّحْمٰن has stated on pages 528 and 529 of the fourth volume of Fatawa Razawiyyah: Hujjat-ul-Islam, a great thinker of Ummah, Imam Abu Haamid Muhammad Bin Muhammad Bin Muhammad Ghazali عَـلَـیۡـهِ رَحْـمَـةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـوَالِی has stated in the book Ihya-ul-‘Uloom: I say that it is not permissible for the guest to ask the host whether the meal is from Halal means. If he wants to adopt piety, he should simply and softly avoid eating the meal. If it is necessary to attend the gathering, he should eat the meal without asking about it. Asking whether or not the meal is provided by lawful means will cause trouble and anxiety and will expose shortcomings, which is undoubtedly Haraam.
(After giving some more pieces of advice, Imam Ghazali عَـلَـیۡـهِ رَحْـمَـةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـوَالِی has further stated) There are too many ignorant ascetics [i.e. those who refrain from worldly pleasures]. They cause anxiety and trouble by enquiring about the meal, using very harsh words. In fact, Satan makes them assume that they are doing something very good by treating such people with harshness. These types of people actually want to become famous for eating only Halal food. If they want to follow religion in this situation, then they should know that the fear of hurting the feeling of Muslims is greater than the fear of eating the suspicious thing. He should know that he will not be questioned
