The ruling on riding in means of transport where intoxicants are served
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I travel outside the Kingdom for trade and calling people to Allah, and sometimes I need to travel on foreign airplanes that serve intoxicants to the passengers. His question is: Am I sinful for doing that? And is there a criterion for the need to ride on these airplanes?
Answer:
There are airplanes that do not have intoxicants, so book a seat on one of those. A Muslim does not sit at a table where intoxicants are circulated, so do not book a seat on an airplane that has intoxicants. There are airplanes that do not have intoxicants, so ask before you book.
