Question
In the United States, Muslim businessmen who sell haraam meat, pork and beer in their shops, contribute dates, etc. to the Musjid for Iftaar. They also indulge in gambling. Is it permissible to consume the dates, etc.?
Answer
Abstain from even the halaal items of people who sell pork, beer and indulge in gambling. Don't corrupt your heart and don't destroy your Fast with the contaminated items they dole out for Iftaar. A haraam morsel is spiritually fatal.
