Contributing money towards christian students

Question

We are Muslim students and sometimes we are asked to contribute money towards the activities of our Christian students. Should we contribute?

zd · Answer

Depends on the nature of the activities you are contributing. If it is promoting Christianity then one must not contribute. If it involves some vain, futile activity then it is makrooh(disliked) to contribute. If it benefits one educationally then it is permissable to conribute. The end result will determine the fatawa (ruling)
