Does drinking Pepsi that contains a percentage of pork nullify ablution or invalidate prayer?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If it is confirmed that a drink contains pork derivatives, then it is impure (najis) and unlawful to consume. Consuming an impure substance does not invalidate ablution (wudu'). Scholars have differed regarding the validity of the prayer of one who has consumed an impure substance while being able to vomit it out. Some of them hold that his prayer is invalid as long as the impurity remains in his body. However, if he is unable to vomit it out, then his prayer is valid.
