Dr. Mabrouk Attia, the former dean of the Faculty of Islamic Studies, and an Islamic preacher, answered a question he received previously on his YouTube channel. He said: “I have a poor, widowed Christian neighbor. Is it useful to give her a Ramadan bag?” Laird said: “Yes, it is correct to give her a Ramadan bag, a Shawwal bag, and a Dhu’l-Qi’dah bag, because God Almighty says And the neighbor who is near and the neighbor who is a stranger.

“Atia” added, saying: This neighbor of yours has the right of neighbourhood, even if the religion differs, and the right of neighbourhood, perhaps, is only that you feed her. A Muslim has two rights, and as for a neighbor who worships stones, he has one right, which is the right of neighbourhood. The right of neighbourhood is shared between Muslims, non-Muslims, blood relatives and non-blood relatives.
And in a previous radio interview, Dr. Sabri Abdel Raouf – a professor at Al-Azhar Al-Sharif University – said during the open period of the program (With Those Who Fast) on the waves of the Holy Quran Radio: Yes, Ramadan bags may be taken out to non-Muslims; Charities we give only for the sake of God Almighty, and our religion calls for righteousness and benevolence to man.
And he added: We have a good example in the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, so he used to visit his Jewish neighbor when he was ill, and that is a prophetic lesson in righteousness and kindness.
