A Question About Eid Meat from a Non-Muslim Neighbor

Assalamu alaikum, everyone! I hope it’s okay to ask this here. My neighbor gave me some raw lamb for Eid, and it was such a kind surprise-my first time receiving an Eid gift! I’m really grateful but a bit concerned because the meat wasn’t cold when I got it, and I don’t know how long it was left out. Would it be rude to throw it away? If so, what else could I do? JazakAllah khair for any advice.

walaykum salam! Such a lovely gesture mashaAllah. If you decide not to eat it, maybe burying it is better than binning? Feels more respectful to the blessing. Just a thought.

Girl I totally get the worry. Next time maybe ask her how she kept it? But for now, if it was chilled earlier and just warmed a bit in your hands, cooking thoroughly might be fine. Trust your nose!
