Note: On Unintentionally Eating Food Or Using Products Containing Haraam Ingredients Such As Pork And Alcoholic Beverages

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
📜 Question: If a person ate pork (or the meat of pig) unknowingly, then is there a compensation upon them? If compensating is obliged, then what is the recompense?
📝 Answer: There is nothing wrong with them for as long as they did not know (they were unaware of the food containing haraam/forbidden ingredients such as lard, pork or wine). What they can do is to gargle and rinse their mouth well to remove the remnants of the filthy substance, and properly wash their hands, Alhamdulillah. 
Question: But what if they don't wash their mouth or they were not informed that what they ate contained pork until after they've eaten, what should they do? 
Answer: There is no blame upon them (since they were not warned that they were consuming pork. 
Muslims are not accountable for wrongdoings which they are ignorant about during the time of committing the mistake or they were forced to do, such as being pranked by non-Muslim acquaintances or dining at a restaurant where the cooking utensils were also used on pork or alcoholic beverages).
From the Fataawa of sheikh AbdulAziz Ibn Baz (May Allah have mercy on him. Ameen.)

Poem: Tips On How To Deal With Users Who Ignore Or "Seen-Zone" You

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Seven likely reasons why someone would "seen-zone" you, 
And tips on how to cope with people who are aloof, 
Who ignored your messages like being rude is "cool", 
Unaware their indifference proves they're insecure, 
Or applying netiquette is something they don't do...
~•~
One: Perhaps their cellphone was being used by their child 
Who, while browsing around, viewed messages that arrived. 
The kid saw your message, while the person whom you liked 
To respond didn't even read the text that you typed, 
So they think you're fine when your name isn't in highlight.
~•~
Two: They're shy types who often find it hard to reply, 
Can't form clever remarks, or they silently replied 
In their imaginations or in dreams late at night.
Three: They're the serious kind who won't add, unless required. 
To them, typing extra letters is a waste of time.
~•~
Four: They're controlling their nafs, hide deep feelings inside, 
Resisting desires is why they refuse to reply. 
Shielding you from zina is something to be admired. 
Five: They're preoccupied with many duties offline. 
True friends sympathize, and give each other space and time.
~•~
Six: They got disconnected when about to reply, 
Slow or unstable internet connection is why 
They can't always answer your messages right on time. 
Seven: They don't understand you. To them, you're despised 
And not important enough to receive a reply.
~•~
Regarding those whose energy conflict with your vibes, 
Whether you come off too strong or you lack traits they like, 
Gladly accept that to choose their close friends it's their right, 
As you move on with a smile, know Allah the Most Wise 
Already chose the souls whose goals align with your life.
~•~
Thus, it's not a problem if some users "seen-zone" you.
Recall those times when you ignored advertisements too, 
When offered free samples while rushing and you'd refuse, 
And to type long replies you're not always in the mood. 
When "seen-zoned", stay patient and maintain tough attitude.
~•~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah’s noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The strong believer is more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, but there is goodness in both of them. Be eager for what benefits you, seek help from Allah, and do not be frustrated. If something befalls you, then do not say: 'If only I had done something else.' Rather say: "Allah has decreed what He wills." Verily, the phrase 'if only' opens the way for the work of shaytan."
