Invocations are not accepted
The noble Messenger of Allah (S) has remarked,
“Prayers of the one who eats a single morsel of HarÄm are not accepted for forty nights nor are his invocations accepted for forty days. Every piece of flesh that grows by consuming HarÄm is most deserving of being burnt in hell-fire and even a single morsel consumed causes some growth of flesh.”
(Safinat’ul-BihÄr)
The Holy Prophet (S) has also stated,
“One who wishes to have his invocations accepted must keep aloof from HarÄm food and unlawful earnings.”
(al-KÄfi)
A man asked the Holy Prophet (S):
“I wish for the acceptance of my deeds.” The Prophet (S) told him,
“Keep your food purified from HarÄm and do not let any unlawful thing enter your stomach.”
(al-KÄfi)
The Almighty Allah (S.w.T.) revealed to Janabe Isa Ibn Maryam (a.s.):
“Inform the oppressors of Bani Israel that they must not call Me and invoke Me as long as they are involved in unlawful earnings. And if they call Me and invoke Me in this condition, I will curse them.”
(al-KÄfi)
