Question:
The second question, in light of this topic: Is it permissible to drink beer with the intention that it removes stones from the kidneys, as some people claim?
Answer:
The beer that is not intoxicating, the one from the military, there is no harm in it. It is a drink made from barley. If it is as they told us about the beer and its brewing, that it is non-intoxicating, if it is non-intoxicating, there is no harm. But if it is established that it intoxicates, then it is forbidden, even if one claims it does not. So if it intoxicates, one should not drink it. Or drinking it.
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) If it is established that it is intoxicating, it is forbidden. Otherwise, the default is its permissibility and that it is not forbidden. The one here in the country is said to be non-intoxicating. So if it is non-intoxicating as they claim, and no one has tried it to find that it intoxicates, there is no harm. But as for what is found abroad, we have mentioned narcotics.
