What is the ruling on putting oil on unripe figs to hasten their ripening for organizational reasons?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Any permissible method that leads to the ripening and maturation of fruits is allowed to be used, unless it leads to deception or harm to people. If this prohibition is absent, then the original ruling is permissibility, because the actions of people concerning customs are originally not forbidden.
