Re: Only Whiskey Distillery in Muslim World Defies Prohibition

lets not talk about harmful effects of this or that..because then I can whip out research that shows positive effects of red wine, and positive impact of some alcohol consumption, or positive effects of even some weed consumption..

alcohol is not allowed to muslims so mulsims dont drink it..

others who do not follow islam have a right to drink it, who are we to stop them?
cant go around forcing our views on others.

Re: Only Whiskey Distillery in Muslim World Defies Prohibition

^thats true Fraudz
We cant sell or facilitate intoxicants for anyone.

26

Re: Only Whiskey Distillery in Muslim World Defies Prohibition

who is we?
you or I are not making it
some person who is not muslim is making it
his company is selling it

what is the definition of facilitation anyways? because by twisting the word to suit one's purpose, we can completely go against what is right.

Let them do whatthey want to do.

Imam Ahmad recorded that Ibn `Umar said that the Messenger of Allah said,

(Ten matters related to Khamr were cursed. Khamr itself was cursed, whoever drinks it, its server, seller, buyer, brewer, who asks for it to be brewed, whoever carries it, whomever it is carried to and whoever consumes its price.) Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah recorded this Hadith. Ahmad recorded that Ibn Umar said, "Once, the Messenger of Allah went out and I went out with him. I walked to his right, but Abu Bakr came along and I gave way to him, and Abu Bakr was walking on the Prophet's right, while I was walking on his left. ThenUmar came along and he was walking on the Prophet's left, since I gave way to him. The Messenger of Allah then found a leather skin hanging containing alcohol, so he asked for a knife and ordered that the skin be cut open. He then said,

Khamr was cursed, and so are those who drink it, serve it, sell it, buy it, carry it, have it carried to them, brew it, have it brewed and consume its price.)''

All this other than drinking is facilitation.

Re: Only Whiskey Distillery in Muslim World Defies Prohibition

well assuming this hadeeth is true...

...who is asking you to serve it, sell it, buy it, carry it, have it carried to them, brew it, have it brewed or consume its price?

let some dude who is not muslim brew it, sell it, and someone who is not muslim consume it.

how does it impact you? or your faith?

Re: Only Whiskey Distillery in Muslim World Defies Prohibition

Sugar can save the life of a hypoglycemic diabetic.

Salt is essential for life. But i am all for regualting on harmful products.

And you cannot equate sugar with alcohol, that isn't best of arguments. Sugar does not make drivers kill pedestrians.

Re: Only Whiskey Distillery in Muslim World Defies Prohibition

We all know how much moderation people exercise in taking alcohol, we shud not be promoting/manufacturing/selling a product taht is harmful to humans.

Re: Only Whiskey Distillery in Muslim World Defies Prohibition

so its not a religious ruling issue but a safety and social issue based ruling then ..right

Re: Only Whiskey Distillery in Muslim World Defies Prohibition

I suppose it's just another criteria of "modernism" set by the Musharraf govt

37

Re: Only Whiskey Distillery in Muslim World Defies Prohibition

did the brewery just open today?

Now I know canadian education is not the best in the world, but there are facts sprinkled throughout the articles, dates liek 1860, 1947, 1960 etc.

unless musharraf govt invented a time machine went back and set 'modernity' criteria in the past, your statement is incorrect :)

38

Re: Only Whiskey Distillery in Muslim World Defies Prohibition

No, we aren't forcing anyone to take this job but we should not be supporting other muslims to do forbidden acts.
Pakistani government should not allow any muslim to do work in a brewery or in any other place where they serve alcohol. Nor government should make any money out of it.
