Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
Benefit: Items prepared by disbelievers and polytheists, in which there is no suspicion of admixture with anything unlawful, are halal (permissible) and pure (tayyib).
Because the original ruling regarding things is permissibility (halal), and for something to be unlawful (haram), a Shari’ah-based evidence is necessary.
However, from an economic perspective, as Muslims, we should avoid items produced by non-Muslims and should promote the products of the people of Islam.
