Is it correct or incorrect for a teacher to refuse to share the food his students brought for a celebration and to take some of it home, and is the teachers’ doing so lawful, unlawful, reprehensible, or permissible, knowing that the quantities of food are large and much of it goes to waste?
There is no harm in eating what the students prepare at the end of the academic year, as it is akin to a feast or a gift for the teacher, so long as it is not a bribe. Discarding food that can be utilized is forbidden because it is a waste of money, which is prohibited.
