The Ruling on Fearing the Harm of Canned Goods
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on one who takes an omen from many things, such as food, fearing that it contains harm, like canned goods?
Answer:
This is not taking an omen. The matter of fearing that canned goods contain harm, that they are poisoned, or that they include harmful chemical substances, is not taking an omen. This is a fear of things that are generally present, for most of these canned goods are not free from health hazards. This is not taking an omen; rather, it is being cautious, taking precautions, and preparing, meaning that avoiding canned goods is a form of preparation, not taking an omen.
