If a Muslim is invited to participate in a charitable activity organized by a group with differing religious beliefs, they should evaluate the situation by considering:

1. The activity’s alignment with Islamic principles: Ensure the charitable cause itself is good and aligns with Islamic values, such as helping the needy or promoting justice.

2. Potential compromises in faith: Consider if the participation might lead to actions that could conflict with Islamic teachings or compromise their beliefs.

3. Intention (niyyah): Reflect on the intention behind participation, ensuring it is for the sake of Allah and not for worldly gain or recognition.

4. Interfaith collaboration: Evaluate whether collaborating with the group will promote positive relations and mutual understanding without compromising religious integrity.

5. Seeking advice: If uncertain, they may consult with a knowledgeable scholar for further guidance.

Ultimately, the decision should be based on preserving one’s faith while support

ing a good cause.
