Claim: Muslims can’t use alcohol-based hand sanitiser as it is against their religion.

Q1: Do Muslims use alcohol based hand sanitizers
A1: While we try to survive a global pandemic, most Muslims will pay attention to health guidelines and use the products as much as necessary.

It is Islamically halal (permissible) to do so too. Most Muslims will agree that anything that’s a necessity is allowed, meaning alcohol-based cleaning products that don’t have an intoxicating effect are halal.

Q2: Are Muslims permitted to use hand sanitizers with alcohol?
A2: Yes, because The Muslim Faith and the use of Alcohol Based Hand Sanitisers

Deb Group Ltd has sought advice on this matter from the Muslim Council of Britain
and the NHS, and has been given the following guidelines.

Muslims in the UK should not be concerned about using alcohol based sanitisers on
their skin because:

1. Any alcohol sold for use on the skin is rendered undrinkable, by law.

2. The issue of alcohol in the Muslim faith relates to the drinking of alcohol, and
not its use in other ways, such as the disinfection of skin.

3. Muslims are permitted to use alcohol based sanitisers for alleviating illness or
improving health.

4. The Muslim Food Board (UK) has confirmed that the use of alcohol based
sanitisers is permitted by their scholars.

5. For further reassurance, there is evidence to show that when using a sanitiser
the amount of alcohol absorbed through the skin is negligible.
