What is the ruling on the seller of beer and pork? Is his prayer accepted or not?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Intoxicating beer or beer that contains a percentage of alcohol, and pork are forbidden. It is not permissible to sell them or to consume their price. There is no evidence that the seller's prayer is not accepted, but the prayer of one who drinks alcohol is not accepted for forty mornings, according to the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. Similarly, consuming unlawful sustenance prevents the acceptance of supplications. The non-acceptance of prayer does not mean its invalidation or the necessity of repeating it; rather, it means not receiving the full reward from it.
