The ruling on soaking grapes in water for three days and then drinking it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A person says that he puts grapes in water for three days, and then he starts drinking it after that.
Answer:
No, this is wine. This wine is made by putting dates in water, not grapes or anything else for sweetening. One drinks it for up to three days. If three days have passed, no, he does not drink it, because it ferments and becomes strong. This is how the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would make wine for him to drink. When three days had passed, he ordered it to be poured out or given to others to drink, peace and blessings be upon him. Yes.
