“in them is a great sin”,though they have some profits for people,their sins are far greater than their profits.

(Baqara V 172)

That flesh will not enter Paradisewhich has grown with Haraam things.

In fact, every flesh which has beencultivated with Haraam

will be fit to enter the fire.(Mishkaat)

That body will not enter Paradisewhich has been fed on Haraam things.

What is Doubtful?

Al-Nu’maan bin Basheer said:I heard the messenger of Allah said:

That which is lawful is clear and that which is unlawful is clearand between the two of them are doubtful matters

about which not many people know.

Thus he who avoids doubtful matters clears himselfin regard to his religion and his honor,but he who falls into doubtful matters

falls into that which is unlawful.(Bukhari)

2.2 Halaal

LLiitteerraall mmeeaanniinngg ooff HHaallaaaall ::

Halaal means to unbind the rope, to remove and finish the restriction.

TTeecchhnniiccaall mmeeaanniinngg ooff HHaallaaaall ::

According to the four Schools of thought*, Halaal includes thosethings which have been declared as lawful by Allah Almighty andThe Holy Prophet “Peace and Blessings be upon Him” and by thegreat and high scholars in the light of Quran and Hadith.

* Hanafi, Shaafi’ee, Hambali & Maaliki

Haraam

LLiitteerraall mmeeaanniinngg ooff HHaarraaaamm ::

Technical meaning of Haraam

Things which are strictly prohibited by Allah Almighty and theHoly Prophet “Peace and Blessings be upon Him” as well as by theIslamic Scholars in the light of Quran and Hadiths, are Haraam.

Jurists of Hanafi, Shaafi’ee, Hambali and Maaliki agree on thosethings which are lawful and clearly mentioned in the Holy Quranand Hadith, (e.x) Cow.

They also agree on those things which are prohibited and clearlymentioned in the Holy Quran and Hadith, (e.x) Pork.

However, Jurists sometimes have different views of those lawfuland unlawful things which have not been specifically mentioned inthe Holy Quran and Hadith, (e.x) seafood etc…

Undoubtedly, it is only a theoretical difference which is based ontheir research and juridical thinking.


The Importance of using Halal and Abstaining Haraam

Islam formulated several rules regarding food and drink in orderto create a healthy society and to eliminate the various diseasesaffecting society. Consequently, Islam lays strong emphasis onphysical health as well as moral progress.

Many times in the Holy Quraan, Allah Almighty highlightsthe need to eat pure things which are Halal and forbids the useof unclean and Haraam foodstuffs. The Messenger of Allah(Peace be upon Him) also stressed on the need to consume Halal food.

(a) In the light of Quraan

In matters of food and drink the Holy Quraan has laid down ageneral rule in the following divine word:

1. They asked you (O Beloved Prophet) what has been madelawful to them? Please declare: “Good and pure things have beenmade lawful to you. (Ma’ida V 4)

2. O Messengers, eat pure things and do good deed, I know your deeds.(Mo’minoon V 51)

3. Mankind! Eat of whatever is in the earth lawful and clean and neverfollow the footsteps of the devil. Surely, he is to you an open enemy.

(Baqara V 168)

4. O you who believe! Eat from the good things which we haveprovided for you and be grateful to Allah if it is (indeed) Him thatyou worship. (Baqara V 172)

(b) In the light of Hadith

1. Earning Halaal is obligatory and to work and make the effort toearn Halaal is an obligatory after another obligatory. (Mishkaat 242)

2. That flesh will not enter Paradise which has grown with Haraamthings. In fact, every flesh which has been cultivated with Haraamwill be fit to enter the fire of Hell. (Mishkaat 242)


3. That body will not enter Paradise which has been fed on Haramthings. (Mishkaat 243)

4. Verily, Allah is pure and He accepts only what is pure. (Mishkaat 241)

2.4 Islamic authority

Islamic authority shall be the recognized body for Islamic affairs inThe Republic of Mauritius

3. Requirements

3.1 Sources of Halaal food and drinks

3.1.1 Animals

Animals can be divided into two categories:

3.1.1.1 Land animals

All land animals are Halaal as food except the following:

a) animals that are not slaughtered according to Shariah law;

b) pigs (khinzir) and dogs and their descendants;

c) animals with long pointed teeth or tusks which are used to kill preysuch as tigers, bears, elephants, cats, monkeys, etc.;

d) birds with talons or predator birds;

e) pests such as rats, centipedes, scorpions and other similar animals;

f) animals that are forbidden to be killed in Islam such as bees(al-nahlah), woodpeckers (hud-hud), etc.;

g) creatures that are considered repulsive such as lice, flies, etc.


GENERAL PRINCIPLES

1. Animals that have been clearly and explicitly prohibited in theQuran and Sunnah are without doubt Haraam, such as pork,donkey, corrion, blood etc…

2. Land-animals that have flowing blood in them and survive ongrass and leaves, and do not prey on other animals are allconsidered Halaal, such as a camel, cow, goat, buffalo,sheep, deer, etc…

3. Amongst the land-animals, those that have no blood in them areconsidered Haraam, such as, fly, spider, scorpion, ant, etc…

4. Those land-animals that do not have flowing blood, are alsoconsidered Haraam, such as snake, lizard, chameleon, etc…

5. Animals that live both on land and water such as crocodiles, turtlesand frogs are not Halaal.

6. All types of pests are also considered Haraam, such as mouse, jerboa, etc…

7. All terrestrial predatory animals and beasts, i.e. animals that huntwith their teeth, are considered Haraam, such as lion, cheetah,tiger, leopard, wolf, fox, dog, cat, etc…

8. All birds of prey, i.e. those that hunt with their claws/talons, areconsidered Haraam, such as falcon, eagle, hawk, bat, etc…

9. All birds that do not hunt with their claws and do not prey onother animals, but eat grains and crop, are all considered Halaal,such as chicken, duck, pigeon, dove, sparrow, etc…

10. If a Halaal animal only consumes impure things that it creates badsmell in its meat and milk, then it will be Makruh (disliked) toconsume its meat and drink its milk. However, if it consumes otherthings along with the impure, or if it does not create bad smell inits meat and milk, then the meat and milk will be Halaal.


11. If one parent of an animal is Halaal and the other Haraam,consideration will be taken of the mother. Thus, if the mother isa Halaal animal, the offspring would also be Halaal, such asa mule whose mother is a cow. If however, the mother is aHaraam animal, the offspring would also be Haraam, such as amule whose mother is a donkey.

3.1.1.2 Aquatic animals

Aquatic animals are those which live in water and cannot surviveoutside it, such as fish. Aquatic animals that are poisonous,intoxicating or hazardous to health are not Halaal. According toHanafi School of thought in all types of aquatic animals only fishis lawful (Halaal) and the rest are disliked, and according toShaafi’ee, Hambali and Maaliki all aquatic animals are lawful (Halaal)except those sea animals that are poisonous, intoxicating orhazardous to health.

There are two views about the prawn, shrimp and their family:

1. Those who consider it to be a form of fish family, say it is lawful.

2. Those who do not consider it to be a form of fish, say it is unlawfuland don’t permit its consumption.

3.1.2 Plants and Vegetables

All types of plants and vegetables and its products are Halaal andlawful for eating except those plants or vegetables which remove intellect(intoxicant), take life (poisonous) and ruin health (hazardous & harmful).

3.1.3 Mushroom and micro-organisms

All types of mushroom and micro-organisms (i.e. bacteria, algaeand fungi) and their by products and/or derivatives are Halaal exceptthose that are poisonous, intoxicating or hazardous to health.


3.1.4 Natural minerals and chemicals

All natural minerals and chemicals are Halaal except those thatare poisonous, intoxicating or hazardous to health.

3.1.5 Drinks

All kinds of water and beverages are Halaal as drinks exceptthose that are poisonous, intoxicating or hazardous to health.

3.1.5.1 Wine

“O Believers! Wine and gambling and idols and diviningarrows are only unclean things, from the work of devil (Satan)So, save yourselves from them, so that you may prosper.”

[S Maida : V 90]

They ask you about wine and gambling. Please declare (OMuhammad): “In them is a great sin”. [Baqara : V 219]

Prohibition of alcohol in the light of Quran and Hadith

Islam has declared Halaal all that is spiritually and physicallyuseful and profitable for human beings. Likewise, it has declaredHaraam all that is spiritually and physically harmful to mankind.Alcohol is one of those products which is Haraam in Islam.

Drinking alcohol not only brings spiritual discomfort and deadlyharm, it also affects the body by bringing several serious diseasesand this has been so clearly established by modern medical science.

In the Holy Quran, it is repeatedly stated in various places thatalcohol is forbidden and likewise in many authentic Ahaadith(Pl. of Hadith). In the following we shall quote from the Holy Quranas well as from the authentic Hadith about the prohibition of alcohol.


AAllllaahh ssaayyss iinn tthhee HHOOLLYY QQUURRAANN ::

1. “{O Beloved} they ask you the precept of wine and gambling.Say you, ‘in both there is great sin and also some worldly profits forthe people but their sin is greater than their profit”.

[S Baqara 2: V 219]

2. “O Believers ! Approach not prayer while you are intoxicated,until you have so much sense that what you say,” [S Nisaa : V 43 ]

3. “O Believers! Wine and gambling and idols and divining arrows areonly unclean things, from the work of devil (Satan) then save yourselvesfrom them, so that you may prosper.”

[S Maida : V 90 ]

4. “The devil (Satan) desires only to infuse hatred and enmity amongyou through wine and gambling, and to bar you from the remembranceof Allah, and from Prayer, will you then desist? [S Maida: V91]

AAllccoohhooll wwaass pprroohhiibbiitteedd iinn IIssllaamm iinn ssttaaggeess..

Thus verse number 219 in Surah Baqara came to be the firstrevelation concerning the prohibition of wine (alcohol). The verse inSurah Nisaa was the second verse regarding alcohol prohibition.

The verse revealed in Surah Maida was the last verse about alcohol.It was also the revelation establishing full prohibition of alcoholicdrinks; after this revelation alcohol became fully prohibited till theDay of Judgment.


Some HADITHS on alcohol prohibition

1. Hazrat Wâ’il Hadhrami has reported that Taariq bin Souwaïd hadasked the Holy Prophet regarding wines. So the Holy Prophet forbade himfrom using alcohol. He told the Holy Prophet that he used wines as amedicine for some treatment. So the Holy Prophet informed him thatalcohol is no medicine but in fact it is the root of disease. [Muslim Shareef]

Please note that the Holy Prophet has some 1400 years backsaid that alcohol is the root of disease and now after some 1400years, medical researchers and scientists have found and proventhat alcohol is indeed the cause of several diseases.

2. Hazrat Abdullah Ibn Umar has reported that the Holy Prophetsaid: “Whoever drinks wine, Allah will not accept his prayers (Salaat) for40 days. But if he repents, Allah will accept his repentance and forgive him.After that, if he drinks alcohol again, Allah will not accept his prayersfor 40 days. But if he repents again, Allah will accept his repentance.If for the third time, he drinks wine (or any alcoholic drinks), again Allahwill not consider his prayers for 40 days. But again if he repents, Allahwill forgive for the third time. Now if for the fourth time, he drinkswine, Allah will not accept his prayers for 40 days. Even if he repentsnow, Allah will not accept his repentance.

(In other words, he has now become an addict; he has lost thecapacity to make a real sincere Tawba; he will continue to drink duringhis whole lifetime and in this state will he die).

And Allah will make him drink from the Khubaal canal which is made fromthe pus of people in Hell. [Tirmizi, Nasaï, Ibn Majah]

3. Hazrat Abdullah Ibn Umar has reported that the Holy Prophet saidthat the one who severs blood ties with his kin, the gambler, and the onewho reminds his favours or services and the chronic alcoholic will not goto Paradise. [Darimi]


4. Hazrat Ibn Umar has reported that the Holy Prophet has said thatthree categories of people will not enter Paradise and among them are thosewho were addicted to alcohol. [Nasaï]

Finally, we present you with a few reports concerning the Sahabas{Blessed Companions of the Holy Prophet} which will provide youwith a glimpse of their strict adherence to the command of Allahand His Beloved Prophet regarding alcohol and how much hatredthey had for this impure substance.

Hazrat Ali has said that :

“if one drop of wine fell in a well and over it were built a minaret,then never would I ever give Azaan over this minaret. If one drop of winefell in a river and then the river dried up and grass would grow on its bed,then never would I ever bring my animals to graze on such a land.”

Subhaanallah, how much hatred did he have for alcohol.

May Allah give us all Tawfeek (courage) to have similar ways of thinking.

Hazrat Jibraeel Ameen said to the Holy Prophet that Allah likesfour virtues in Hazrat Jaafar Tayyaar. When the Holy Prophet enquiredwith Hazrat Jaafar Tayyar, he said that among these four virtues,one of them is that he had never drunk wine in his life even beforeit becoming prohibited. The reason he gave was that he alwaysknew that drinking wine affects the brain and intellect and he wantedto have a sharper mind.

Secondly, he informed that he had never worshipped any idolbecause he knew that it could neither profit him nor cause him any harm.

Thirdly, he had never committed adultery because he alwaysconsidered it as a very shameful act.

Fourth, he had never told a lie because he always considered lying asbeing something very mean and wicked.


3.1.6 Genetically Modified Food (GMF)

Food and drinks containing products and/or by-products ofGenetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) or ingredients made bythe use of genetic material of animals that are non-Halaal byShariah law are not Halaal.

Important Texts ofISLAMIC LAW

FFaarrddhh ((Compulsory)):: Abandoning or abstaining from a Fardh actionis a major sin, rejecting a fardh act amounts to Kufr.

WWaajjiibb:: An aspect which, if not performed on purpose is a sin,to leave a Wajib once on purpose is a small sin and to make a habitof leaving it out becomes a major sin.

SSuunnnnaatt-ee-MMuuaakkkkaaddaahh:: It refers to an act which when left out is abad thing, and when performed is a good thing. To leave out bymistake is an offence resulting in a warning and to make a habitof leaving it out is a punishable act.

SSuunnnnaatt-ee-gghhaaiirr-MMuuaakkkkaaddaahh:: It refers to that act which, whenperformed is a good thing and when left out (even to make a habit

of leaving out) does not lead to a warning. However, to leave outcontinuously is disliked in Shariah.

MMuussttaahhaabb (recommended / desirable):it refers to that act which, when performed carries reward.

HHaarraaaamm (forbidden): it refers to that act which, if performed evenonce on purpose is totally forbidden and is a major sin and toabstain from it is compulsory and holds reward.

MMaasshhbboooohh (doubtful): It refers to those things which have notbeen declared allowed or prohibited and should be avoidedand abstained from.

MMaakkrruuhh TTaahhrriimmii:: it refers to that act which, when performed,makes the worship incomplete and to perform it on purpose is a sinthough in a lesser degree than a Haraam act but near to it.


MMaakkrruuhh TTaannzziihhii:: it refers to that act which, when performed isdisliked by Shariah and to abstain from it is advisable and holdsreward.

MMuubbaahh:: it refers to that act which, whether performed or not is the same.

KKhhiillaaaaff ee OOuullaa:: it refers to that act which, when performed isdisliked by Shariah but to perform carries no sin nor is there awarning against it.

Note: Mubah is nearly a lawful thing and Makruh (abominable) isnearly an unlawful thing. All sorts of abominable things are to beavoided as far as possible by the pious Muslims because they have toavoid going near the borderline of illegality.
