The Ruling on the Impurity of Intoxicants and a Man Being Alone
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And I say to the majority of the people of salvation, I ask Allah, Mighty and Majestic, for their deeds.
The Shaykh:
The majority hold that it is ritually impure, and the safest course is to wash it if one finds it, to be on the safe side and avoid the difference of opinion, if it touches a garment or a vessel.
The questioner:
And combining the evidence here, there is evidence here and evidence there, and combining them so that the doubt is resolved, meaning whether it is ritually impure or not?
The Shaykh:
So the safest course for the believer is to wash it, acting on the opinion of the majority, and as for their argument that the Companions drank it, it may be that they drank it because they did not consider its impurity, yes.
The questioner:
Explicit evidence for the impurity in the solitary hadith.
The Shaykh:
Yes, Abu Majid.
The questioner:
The hadith prohibiting a man from staying alone.
The Shaykh:
There is no harm in it, if they are alone, people know what is in being alone, that one man did not stay alone in a night.
The questioner:
Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh:
And the shock.
