Jazakallah for clarification.
Asslamo Allaikum Shaykh (Mufti) Tosir Miah Saheb (HA),
I found a personal email from you to a Maulana stating that Jus-rol is Halal. The same Maulana also sent the query to SANHA who also stated that its Halal. Shaykh (Mufti) Abdullah Patel (HA) ruled that its Haram. The issue is not Ethanol but due to it being (actively) added and the quantity (I guess), would you take a look at the ruling which you provided?
Shaykh (Mufti) Tosir Miah Saheb (HA): You know that there is a difference of opinion on the matter?
Muadh Khan: This isn't about Ethanol but the mechanism of its addition and the quantity, I would hazard a guess but you need to confirm...
Shaykh (Mufti) Tosir Miah Saheb (HA): O! I see what you are saying...Jazakallahu Khayran for bringing this to my attention and I will discuss the matter with Shaykh (Mufti) Shabbir Saheb (HA) and get back to you...
Muadh Khan: Mufti Saheb your Fatwa on JusRoll is causing some confusion because isn’t ethanol supposed to be permissable? So why is the product declared Haram?
Mufti Abdullah Patel: Basically, I have exercised caution due to the fact that it (Alcohol) is an added ingredient and JusRoll told me that not all Alcohol evaporates.
Muadh Khan: Mufti Saheb can I make your response public or is it private for me?
Mufti Abdullah Patel: Yes you can.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
Please wait...
