Boycotting products from a country that commits blasphemy

· 29 Rabiʻ I 1442 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I want to enquire about the shari ruling regarding boycotting products of any kafir country that openly commits blasphemy. What should be done with the products (biscuits and cosmetics) that we already purchased before this issue?

Answer

It is not haraam to use their products. But obviously the sensitivity around this issue is quite serious. It is best to avoid it altogether in a way that is manageable and easy.

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