requirements in a subject is to ferment wine and after several months
they will be tasting it to affirm the proper mixture.
We dont like to be cursed by the Prophet sallaAllahu alayhi wa sallam
as long as we are studying(5 months/1 semester), because one day is
not enough to prepare it, then they would be sinning for a long time.
According to what we read that the Prophet sallaAllahu alayhi wa
sallam cursed 10 kinds of people associated with alcoholic beverages:
1. those who make it themselves
2. those who help make it
3. those who use it
4. those who carry it
5. those whom it is carried
6. those who give it to others
7. those who sell it
8. those who use the money made from it
9. those who purchase it
10. those from whom it is purchased
[Ibn Majah and At-tirmidhi]
What is the Ruling on making wine? and what are the necessary actions
as a student, who were just sent by their parents to study, should
they take when their Professor requires them to do such thing? We
really seek your advice and please give a clear evidence with regard
to this matter, for most of his Muslim classmates does not really
follow without proper evidence. May Allah guide them and In sha Allah
whatever may come unto us we will accept it, May Allah give us strong
eeman and taqwa.
Praise be to Allaah.
It is haraam to consume, carry, sell or buy alcohol, and ten types of
people are cursed with regard to it, as it says in the hadeeth
narrated by at-Tirmidhi (1295) and Abu Dawood (3674) from Anas ibn
Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The Messenger of
Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) cursed ten with
regard to wine: the one who squeezes (the grapes etc), the one who
asks for it to be squeezed, the one who drinks it, the one who carries
it, the one to whom it is carried, the one who pours it, the one who
sells it and consumes its price, the one who buys it and the one for
whom it is bought.
Calssed assaheeh by al-Albaani inSaheeh at-Tirmidhi
It is not permissible to manufacture alcohol for drinking or for
medical purposes, because of the report narrated by Abu Dawood (3874)
from Abu'd-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The
Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:
"Allaah has sent down the disease and the remedy, and He has created
for every disease a remedy, so treat disease but do not treat it with
anything that is haraam."
Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani inSaheeh al-Jaami', 1762
Muslim (1984) narrated from Waa'il ibn Hijr (may Allah be pleased with
him) that Taariq ibn Suwayd al-Ju'fi asked the Prophet (S) about
khamr, and he forbade him or expressed his disapproval of his making
it. He said: I only make it as a remedy. He said: "It is not a remedy,
but it is a disease."
This clearly indicates that it is haraam to use alcohol for medicinal
purposes and that it is not a remedy; rather it is a disease.
An-Nawawi said: This indicates that it is haraam to use and produce
alcohol, and it clearly indicates that it is not a medicine, so it is
haraam to use it for medicinal purposes, because it is not a remedy,
so it is like consuming it for no reason. This is the correct view
according to our companions. End quote.
Ibn Mas'ood (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Allah has not put
your healing in that which He has forbidden to you." It was also
mentioned by al-Bukhaari in amu'allaqreport (5/2129)
If the alcohol is being made for drinking or to use as a remedy or as
part of a remedy, it is not permissible for the student to take part
in producing it, and he has to do announce his stance and show pride
in his religion, and refuse to participate in something that is
haraam.
If it is being produced in order to find out the chemical properties
of alcohol, and what is produced will be destroyed and not drunk or
put into medicine, then it is permissible, but it is haraam to taste
it; tasting it should be left to non-Muslim colleagues.
Based on that, in order for the student to participate in this
production experiment, it is stipulated that the alcohol should be
destroyed and no one should be allowed to drink it or put it into
medicine. If these conditions are accepted, there is nothing wrong
with him participating; otherwise he should refrain from participating
even if that will lower his grade. All the Muslim students should
refuse to do that and ask the university to accommodate their
religious needs.
And Allah knows best.
