The Punishment of Drinking Wine "Liquor" between the Islamic code and chastisement / Ahmed Yousuf Smadi
Linguistically, liquor hadd means any material that intoxicates, what extracted from grape juice or another substance. it is named "liquor" for it affects the minds. Jurists varied in limiting the meaning of "liquor", but after I scrutinized the evidence of each team of jurists, I realized that "liquor" includes any intoxicating material conforming the text versions that legislator had defined "liquor". After reviewing and discussing the evidence of jurists, I detected that the punishment for drinking liquor is not an Islamic code , hack!, since there is no evidence hadd it is a divine sentence on certain crimes related and allotted by Allah. Chastisement is a legal punishment which is not allotted by the legislator
