The third question of Fatwa No. ( 18644 )
Q3: What is the ruling on using vinegar mixed with alcohol for food ?
And what is the ruling on treating with alcohol ?
A3: It is not permissible to use vinegar mixed with alcohol that intoxicates in large quantities; because intoxicating alcohol is khamr (intoxicants), and Allah has commanded the avoidance of khamr. It is not permissible to treat with intoxicating alcohol; because when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about khamr prepared as medicine, he said:Sunan ad-Daraqutni 27:88 , and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 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.

إنها داء وليست بدواءWhatever a lot of it intoxicates, a little of it is unlawful.
ما أسكر كثيره فقليله حرام
