Eating at a casino complex?
Question
Q. Is it advisable or allowed to partake from fastfood outlets that advertise halal but are in casino complexes.jazakAllah
Answer
No. It is not permissible to partake of meals at such places. Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has prohibited a Muslim from going to a venue of vice and said “Whoever adds to the crowd of a people is counted as part of them.” (Kanzul Ummaal, Musnad Abi Ya’la).
And Allah Knows Best
