On the Recent Alcohol Fatwa
Mahmood chimes at his den about the recent Qaradawi fatwa on the permissibility of small amounts of alcohol. Editor’s Note: this piece is sarcastic, and should not be considered an endorsement of the fatwa in any way.
But what’s the context, I hear you ask? Well, the guy based this “fatwa” on the (apparent) fact that some energy drinks contain minute amounts of alcohol, said to be about 1/8th of that contained in light beers. And as - says he - a person cannot get drunk by consuming copious amounts of said energy drink, then a little dram won’t hurt anyone, and is Islamically sanctified.
@ who the hell is Qaradawi ? an opportunist ? century long
invalid, soldout, in-wall imprisoned tedpoles, sensational
religious thuggery.
