“But if it is done just to be friendly towards them and enjoy their company, this is a dangerous matter, because the principle of al-wala’ wa’l-bara’ (befriending the believers and showing enmity towards the disbelievers) is one of the basic principles of Islam . . .”

In other words, if you don’t convert they have to show enmity to you, not just for this meal, but all the time. Merriam Webster defines enmity as “positive, active, and typically mutual hatred or ill will.”

That seems pretty relevant to me.

The only thing I want them to show me is their butt on the way out of the country I could careless about their religion.
