Re: Husband and alcohol

@Deeba1234

Anyone here married to a Turk? It’s considered totally normal to a lot of them (their national drink is alcoholic)..

Also just read this and it really surprised me.. Anyone know if it’s true??

‘The Hanafi school of Islam, which accounts for around 40% of Muslims (including Turkey), does not prohibit ethanol, but intoxication, based on a different interpretation of the operative word, khamr, although the other three schools prohibit both ethanol and intoxication[SUP]citation needed][/SUP]. One of the two great scholars of the Hanafi school, Abu Yusuf, drank a mildly alcoholic malt beverage, which was at the time used to provide energy.’
