Do all the rulings regarding intoxicants apply to their derivatives, especially those found in beverages such as coffee and soft drinks?
Drugs are forbidden because they are intoxicants. Whatever is derived from them remains forbidden, whether in small or large quantities, as long as it causes intoxication. However, if the intoxicating property is removed, then there is no harm in consuming it, as the reason for its prohibition has ceased. This ruling applies to drinks and foods that contain drug derivatives after their intoxicating effect has been eliminated.
