Dealing in riba and alcohol while fasting

· 13 Shawwal 1439 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Would Allah accept your fasting in Ramadan if you recieve and give riba (usury) and receive income which is based on selling alochol products?

Answer

You will be absolved of the obligation, but the acceptance is very unlikely.

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