Re: What does this Ayah mean?
abay bhai, please go and ask your imam sahab about nasikh and mansookh ..
every ayat of Quran is nasikh in qirat, but not every ayat is nasikh in Hukm .. ‘dont go near namaz when you are intoxicated’ does not mean that you can drink but just dont do namaz at that time. Drinking alcohol got banned much after this ayat was revealed. It means that this Ayat is nasikh in qirat, but not in hukm anymore.
