In supermarkets, this is sold as \u2018beer powder\u2019 in its non-fermented and unfinished form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of Shariah, if the \u2018beer powder\u2019 is made from permissible ingredients such as maize, malt and yeast and can be used for a permissible purpose, there is no prohibition in the purchase and sale of it. Thus, it would be permissible to sell \u2018beer powder\u2019. However, a Muslim should abstain from selling products that may commonly be used for prohibited purposes. <strong>(Shaami 6\/391 \u2013 Islam Aur Jadeed Maashi Masaail 4\/17)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Allah Ta\u2019ala Knows Best<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mufti Ismaeel Bassa<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>themufti.com<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The permissibility of selling Beer Powder Q.
