I am in need of urgent clarification. I was told Apple Cider Vinegar has many health benefits and have been wanting to try it for some time but i am worried if it is Halal or not?

I understand wine and alcohol are haram but is vinegar? Specifically is Apple Cider Vinegar Halal?

Thank you for your time and help

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

Vinegar is not only halāl, the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم even praised it.

حدثنى عبد الله بن عبد الرحمن الدارمى أخبرنا يحيى بن حسان أخبرنا سليمان بن بلال عن هشام بن عروة عن أبيه عن عائشة أن النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم قال نعم الأدم أو الإدام الخل

(صحيح مسلم، كتاب الأشربة، باب فضيلة الخل والتأدم به: 6/125؛ الجيل)

The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “How great of a condiment is vinegar” (Muslim)

And Allah knows best

Wassalaamu `alaykum
