The answer

According to most scholars, it is permissible to eat food that contains maggots, though it is preferable to clean it. Therefore, there is no harm in eating maggot-ridden mushrooms and the oil in which they were cooked, unless medical evidence proves it to be harmful, in which case it would not be permissible.
