Boycotting for Political Reasons: Is it Permissible in Shariah?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Does our Shariah allow for the boycotting of a particular country or products from a particular country for political reasons even though the products may be halaal suitable? If we do boycott, will we be guilty of making a halaal product haraam for ourselves?

Bismillaah

A: When it is a crime of certain individuals why should the country be boycotted.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
