A Mufti says that according to Imaam Abu Hanifah transporting beer is permissible.

Question

A Mufti says that according to Imaam Abu Hanifah transporting beer is permissible. Is he right?

Answer

Transporting beer, liquor, pork and any haraam goods is haraam. Some muftis of this age disgorge drivel. They are too stupid to understand the proper meanings of Fiqhi technicalities.

The brains and Imaan of every Muslim readily accept that to aid haraam is also haraam. The Qur‟aan Majeed states: "Do not assist in transgression and sin." This is sufficient for understanding the prohibition and for rejecting the drivel which some muftis promote.

Also, Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: "Seek a fatwa from your heart." On simple issues, the Muslim‟s heart will issue the correct fatwa which overrides the corrupt fatwas of muftis of shallow understanding.
