Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu
Allah Ta’ala says, ‘. And do not aid in sin.’ (Maaidah). Rasulullah
(Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, ‘Whosoever deceives is not from amongst
us.’ (Tirmidhi)
To change the expiry dates of products and sell them is deception. To
deliver such products will be assisting in sin.
and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
