I have recently met a Muslim lady and we are becoming quite friendly. I would like to invite her to a party, along with a few of my other friends. What do I need to take into consideration regarding eg food and topics of conversation? I don't want to accidentally cause any offence. Many thanks.

What sort of party is it?

If you consider her a friend why don't you invite her & ask her what to avoid?

I'd suggest have vegetarian food & soft drinks/water available. No idea what you mean by topics of conversation, unless you're planning on being rude to her I'd imagine she'll be happy to join in with whatever conversation you're making.

I have a muslim friend. She doesn't like laminate flooring or coffee creams so I'd avoid talking about those.

Other than that there is a book called Morals and Manners in Islam which is quite an interesting read. I haven't read it in many years so not sure if it actually has anything pertinent to your party.

OP, I'd just view them as person first. She won't expect you to know the dos and donts. She will tell you. Better of treating her as an individual and letting it play out

Don't serve her alcohol or pork. Don't ask to see a picture of Mohammad. Anything else you don't know should be easy to just laugh off.
