Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Whatever a lot of it intoxicates, a little of it is unlawful.ما أسكر كثيره فقليله حرام
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1865Hasan (Darussalam)
, I read a paper by one of them yesterday in which he says: A small amount of what intoxicates is forbidden, this is if it is a liquid, but if it is solid, then a small amount is not forbidden. How valid is this?

Answer:
This is from his own pocket; there is no basis for this. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whatever a lot of it intoxicates, a little of it is unlawful.ما أسكر كثيره فقليله حرام
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1865Hasan (Darussalam)
, and he did not say: if it is wet or solid. Whatever intoxicates in large quantities, a small amount of it is forbidden, whether it is eaten or drunk.
