Growing up, I always saw my family politely decline Salah food from our Muslim neighbours.

We simply don’t eat it.

So when she brought some over, I respectfully declined.

I thought that was the end of it.

Yesterday, I bought biscuits after work and called her kids as usual.

They didn’t come.

Then the youngest shouted:

“My mummy said we shouldn’t collect anything from you again.”

I confronted her.

Her response was immediate:

“If you can’t eat mine, why should my children eat yours?”

Woman b@rred her children from collecting gifts from another neighbour over a rejected Salah food gesture.
