Question:
As-Salamu aleykum. Pork substances in Germany are often in mixed drinks or bread. Can we eat or drink?
Country: Germany
Answer:
Wa alaykum salam wa rahmatuLlahi wa barakatuHu,
In the 3rd verse of Surah al-Maidah Allah says,
حرمت عليكم الميتة والدم ولحم الخنزير…
“Made unlawful for you is carrion, blood, the flesh of swine…”
Intended by the pig is the pig and all its parts, the pig’s meat is specifically mentioned as that is what one would most likely consumes from it. Therefore, food mixed with pork is not permissible as it entails also eating the pork mixed with it. Eating pork is not permissible in Islam.
Allah knows best.
