Q: Is it permissible for a pharmacy to sell the following products:
1. Items containing gelatin from animals that were not slaughtered according to Shari’ah?
2. Items containing alcohol which have a non-alcoholic equivalent.
3. Also, will the money earned from such sales be haraam?
A: If there are no halaal alternatives, then it is permissible.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
