Well I don't know of any medicine that contains alcohol in large amounts...Secondly , most people don't look at the "ingredients" of the medicine. Doctor prescribes them a medicine and they go and buy it from the store and take it. Secondly , medicine is medicine...it is suppose to treat you and thats it! No "halal" , "haram" in it. Please don't make deen THAT hard ...it sounds ridiculous !

Brother I'm not sure how old you are (I would assume you're fairly young, but forgive me if that's not the case), and I'm most definitely not sure why you're going around passing fatwas in different threads. I called you on it in a different thread also.

Like some others said, if a medicine contains pork for example, it is 100% haram, as the Prophet

said not to ingest even a single hair of a pig. I heard this fatwa being given live to a brother in a Masjid who was asking a Mufti (who was visiting from overseas) that he is diabetic and the insulin his doctor wants to give him contains pig product so if he is allowed to take it, and the mufti told him it would not be allowed and to seek alternate means. That's just one example of how medicine can be haram. Of course Islam accommodates all types of situations and circumstances and it is extremely rare (if not impossible) where someone would be asked to stay away from something if that was the only choice they had and their life depended on it. One is allowed to eat pork (just enough to keep them from dying) if they are in the middle of nowhere, about to die of starvation, and the only thing around them to eat is pig. There are countless other examples like that where the impermissible becomes permissible, based on extraordinary circumstances, so deen is not as "hard" or "ridiculous" as you say. That's why we have scholars who we need to consult in these matters and not give our own fatwas like you are. May Allah

protect us all, Ameen.

In any case, once again, I am not sure why you are going around passing fatwas in different threads, but I would humbly request you to control yourself. If you don't believe in something or it doesn't suit your taste or style, that's fine, but don't try to contaminate it for everyone else as well.

May Allah

show us all the right path. Ameen. Do forgive me if I said something wrong.
