Juice When It Ferments
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa No. ( 20602 )
Q 2: Is it true that juices and drinks that intoxicate a person are considered forbidden?
A 2: Permissible juice, when it ferments and becomes strong, becomes forbidden khamr (intoxicants); because khamr is that which covers the intellect, meaning: it covers it with intoxication from whatever it may be; due to the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan Ibn Majah 3390Hasan (Darussalam) , and his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1865Hasan (Darussalam) . And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.

Every intoxicant is Khamr (wine) and every Khamr is unlawful.
كل مسكر خمر وكل خمر حرامWhatever a lot of it intoxicates, a little of it is unlawful.
ما أسكر كثيره فقليله حرام
