The ruling on mixing varieties without fermentation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Peace be upon you. If there is mixing without fermentation.
The Shaykh:
Look, raise your voice.
The questioner:
If you mix these varieties without them being fermented for the market, meaning there is some mixing, but it is in its proper time, meaning the duration of fermentation does not become long.
The Shaykh:
It is not forbidden unless it intoxicates. If it intoxicates, it is forbidden. If it does not intoxicate, it is not forbidden, provided it does not alter the mind, just as the Exalted and Majestic is He said:[An-Nisa 4:43] The intoxicated person does not know what he says. He mixes. So if it does not alter his mind, there is no problem. A drink that does not alter the mind, or food that does not alter the mind, and his mind is with him, there is no problem.
The presenter:
