Full Sharh — Mishkat al-Masabih 3922

English Translation

Qabisa b. Hulb quoted his father as saying that he asked the Prophet about the food of the Christians, (a version saying it was a man who asked him), adding that it was a kind of food from which he kept aloof. He replied, “Let no doubt enter your breast by which you resemble Christianity.”* *The general sense is that such food is allowable. Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud transmitted it.
