Throwing away leftover food.

 


Question:

What is the ruling on putting leftover food remnants that can not be benefited from such as bones, into a trash barrel?
س: ما حكم وضع باقي الأطعمة التي لا يستفاد منها مثل العظام في برميل الزبالة؟

Answer:

Spoiled food that will not be eaten, there is no problem with throwing it in the trash. As for good food which may be eaten, even if by animals, if it is possible that the animals or the birds may eat it then it is not permissible to throw it in the trash; because this food is highly regarded, and it can be benefited from. Throwing it in the trash is to have low regard for it and to waste it. So if those leftovers are from food which may be benefited from then it is not permissible to put it in the trash, but if it can't be benefited from and it is spoiled then there is nothing wrong with it being in the trash.

الأطعمة الفاسدة التي لا تأكل لا بأس أن توضع في الزبالة ، وأما الأطعمة الطيبة التي يمكن أن تأكل حتى ولو للبهائم يمكن تأكلها البهائم أو الطيور هذه لا يجوز وضعها في الزبالة ، لأنها محترمة ولأنها ينتفع بها ، وفي وضعها بالزبالة إهدار لها وإفساد لها ، فإن كانت هذه البقايا من الطعام ينتفع بها فلا يجوز وضعها في الزبالة أما إن كانت لا ينتفع بها وهي فاسدة فلا بأس بإبقائها في الزبالة
