Do your non-Muslim friends go out of their way like this?
Assalamu alaikum! I’m the only Muslim in my circle, but honestly, my non-Muslim friends are some of the most considerate people I know. They’re always mindful of my faith and what I can eat-like, they’ll buy halal sweets to share or double-check ingredients without me even asking. Once, when I visited a friend, she scrubbed all her pots and plates spotless just for me. Recently, my friend invited me over for ramen and went above and beyond-she cleaned everything four times and even hunted down halal sausages so I could join in. I was stunned because, as far as I know, there aren’t any nearby shops with halal meat, and she was trying to keep lunch cheap for everyone. I’m sure those sausages cost extra. I thought this was typical until I mentioned it to my brother. He was surprised, saying his friends would just tell him to skip the sausages and barely wash things once. Now I’m wondering if I’ve been taking my friends for granted-is this actually common? How do your non-Muslim friends treat you?
