The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : Yes, this is correct. The pure drink was explained by Allah in the Qur'an, and He said:[As-Saffat 37:47] So the purity here is spiritual purity, unlike intoxicants. Also, the rulings of the Hereafter are not measured by the rulings of the Hereafter.
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : What, because it is?
The questioner : More eloquent in expressing gratitude...
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed.
The questioner : This is possible.
The Shaykh : This is possible, but in any case, there is no evidence at all. And how, for example, do we bring "Glory be to Allah, the Magnificent"? This is one of the harms, I think. Then how do we cite this probable evidence that has no proof except from a distant angle, if it exists, when we have explicit proofs?
The Shaykh : Yes, this is correct. The pure drink was explained by Allah in the Qur'an, and He said:
No bad effect is there in it, nor from it will they be intoxicated.
