Dear Islamic brothers! As it is Ḥarām to drink alcohol; its trading and earnings are also Ḥarām.
The Prophet of Raḥmaĥ صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘Alcohol and its value (i.e. earnings), carrion and earnings from it, pig and earnings from it have been declared Ḥarām by Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ.’ (Sunan Abī Dāwūd, vol. 3, pp. 387, Ḥadīš 3488 Multaqaṭan)
In one of the Aḥādīš, the Beloved Rasūl صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stated, ‘When Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ declared eating of fat (of kidneys, intestines and stomach) Ḥarām for Jews, they sold it and consumed earnings from it. So, when Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ declares anything Ḥarām for some nation, He عَزَّوَجَلَّ also declares earnings from it Ḥarām.’ (Sunan Abī Dāwūd, vol. 3, pp. 387, Ḥadīš 3488 Multaqaṭan)
The Merciful Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated, ‘Anything that causes intoxication when consumed in more quantity is also Ḥarām in small quantity.’ (Sunan Abī Dāwūd, vol. 3, pp. 459, Ḥadīš 3681)
The Most Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated, ‘If a ‘Farq’ (a unit of weight equivalent to 16 ratals) of some thing can cause intoxication, a handful of it is also Ḥarām.’ (Jāmi’-ut-Tirmiżī, vol. 3, pp. 343, Ḥadīš 1873)
On page 672 of Baĥār-e-Sharī’at, volume 3 [the 1250-page book publication of Maktaba-tul-Madīnaĥ, the publishing department of Dawat-e-Islami], it is stated: The renowned Islamic scholar Muftī Amjad ‘Alī A’ẓamī عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـقَـوِی has mentioned that ‘Khamr’ is in itself absolutely Ḥarām.
