Fathwa - Writing bad review of a restaurant that caused food poisoning

Question
What is the ruling on leaving a bad review for a business? recently my
family went out for A meal and all had food poisoning from the
restaurant what is the ruling on leaving an honest bad review of an
restaurant?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
isHis slave and Messenger.
It is permissible for you to write a report describing what had
happened as a complaint because of being wronged as Allaah says (what
means): { Allaah does not like the public mention of evil except byone
who has been wronged. And ever is Allaah Hearing and Knowing. } [Quran
4:148] Also, as a way of advisingthe general public so thatthe owners
of that restaurant would be obliged to check their food and take
safety measures so that they would not cause the death of people with
their rotten and contaminated food.
The Prophet said: " Religion is advice ". They said, " For whom? '' He
replied, " For Allaah, His Book, His Messenger and for the leaders of
the Muslims and their masses. " [Muslim]
Allaah Knows best. - - ▓███▓ Translator:->
