Coke and Pepsi contain ALCOHOL, reveals French research

[abdulwahhab]

Many juices contain naturally occurring alcohols that are much higher than those found in either Coke or Pepsi. Even so, a person would probably become extremely sick and may have to be hospitalized due to drinking a lot of Pepsi or Coke before they even begin to feel intoxicated.

Also, the earlier fatwa from Mufti Ebrahim Desai (DB) shows us the Hanafi position so it should be a non-issue for Hanafis to begin with.

its bad for your health and supports the zionists so why drink it anyway? Give the money to charity as whilst you live in luxury, bangladesh has floods, somalis have drought etc. Allahu must'aan taht we sit around with these luxuries when teh muslim world is in the emmergency state its currently in. You need your health to serve islam and you need your wealth to serve islam, instead we give it away to jews so we can "enjoy" a health hazard of a drink

[hazratji]

With every can you purchase , you tell the enemies to make one bullet for your muslim brothers & sisters. Isn't that more than enough to boycott these drinks ?

[Muj4h1d4]

We can just not drink them if in doubt?

everything with sugar has alcohol. "Alcoholic" beverages are made from grapes, honey, wheat, you name it. To get it "alcoholic" you have to add stuff to it most of the time it is starches like yeast or barley (not so sure on the barley) and let it undergo a chemical process. Also you have to let it ferment for awhile. Hoped I helped!

Regardless of the ingredients, the huge environmental strain on water resources, something like 30 litres of fresh water needed to make one can of coke, should make such products haraam.
People in India fought Coca Cola from setting a factory in one town, due to the dropping of the water table, leading to arsenic contamination from pumping water too close to the bedrock.
Haraam is not only the ingredients, the process and environmental effects must also be taken into consideration, one would think?

The rains would naturally replenish the wells, but industrialisation depletes vital resources that are necessary for survival faster than it can be replenished.

Coca-Cola is ran by the Mossad and is controlled by the Zionists.

True story..............Not!!

any authentic clear deobandi fatwa regarding this?

[SaifnSound]

Any product which negates the basic right for a human to drink clean water has got to be haraam?
Where water is plentiful, ok not a problem in this regard.
But where water is becoming arsenic, and millions are developing polio as a direct result of competition for resource, then can this be a halaal product?
One would have to have no heart to champion a superfluous product in these circumstances.
