Oh my word, I hope you’re joking about the sms and email thing. Most of the stuff people sms and email you are LIES! They are not proven and are just distributed to stir up controversy and circulate fear propaganda. Please double check any of the rumors you hear before believing them.

Here is an article by a TRUSTED news source about Ribena an Lucozade Lucozade and Ribena ‘fit for Muslims to consume’ | UK news | The Guardian

Re: Ribena and Lucozade

I've had Ribena alot of times as a kid when I was in England, this sounds fishy to me.

Re: Ribena and Lucozade

Lucozade's the same as Gatorade, except its got some caffeine in it and is found outside of the US. There is no alcohol in either.

SHC you took the words right out of my mouth. Thank you for speaking up sister, always! :lifey:

Re: Ribena and Lucozade

but isn't ribena also given to infants?

Re: Ribena and Lucozade

They are saying the same about rubicon:bummer: The traces of ethyl ethanol found in certain soft drinks are used as softeners. Some say it is halal and some say it is haram but no way does 0.05% constitute to being 20ml of alcohol per can, as some people have/are suggesting. If it was such an amount, it would have to be declared on the packaging, in accordance with legal requirements.

Often such issues are modern day urban myths. For example people used to say do not drink Coca Cola as it has pig’s blood in it.

The only company which have declared the minute traces of alcohol in their products.

As per my knowledge, if one is unsure about something, it is best to avoid if helped. I think in this situation, it is one of those areas where there will be no definitive answer.
