Q 21: Is it permissible to trade
in alcohol and pigs
if a person sells them to non-Muslims?
A:
It is prohibited to trade in what Allah has prohibited of foods and drinks such as alcohol and pigs even if a person sells them to non-Muslims. It was authentically reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
"If Allah forbids something (to be consumed), He, with greater reason, forbids its price (i.e. selling it)."
Moreover, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
Cursed are Khamr (alcohol), the one who drinks it, the one who sells it, the one who buys it, the one who carries it, the one to whom it is carried, the one who consumes its price, the one who squeezes it (the grapes, etc), and the one for whom it is squeezed.
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
