Yes, though it is preferred not to be the drinkable kind. Without giving a fatwa (religious verdict) the way to think of it is the goal is to not drink alcohol. In particular is highlighted to not get drunk or addicted to it, but of course there may be other subtending reasons too. Intentions matter greatly in islam; it's generally very practical.

At the same time the prohibition against drinkable alcohol in islam is so strong even the people who buy/sell, or even serve alcohol are considered sinning so best to stay well clear. That's why there is such a distaste for the stuff in islamic culture, but for practical purposes as a chemical it can be extremely useful.

It could also be argued that it naturally appears in some foods (like overripe bananas I believe), but of course those probably aren't haram as you're likely not going to suffer the same effects.

Allah knows best.

Jarvis, burn the shit out of the driver in front of me. Or blind him for life.

Likely not that simple as there would be other factors at play, but good way of thinking. I'm no geneticist but that sounds like it may be a contributing factor, though memory in this case would be functional rather than personality-based.

I wish someone gave you a brain.

The Palestinian Relief Bundle on Itch.io contains 373 items for a minimum cost of $8. 213 of the items are are games, including greats such as Wandersong, A Short Hike and Coffee Talk. All proceeds go towards the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF), a non-profit working to provide food, water and medical treatment in Gaza.

All of the items in the bundle, which also includes tabletop source books, comics and soundtracks, would normally cost $1657 (around £1339). While it's available for $8, Itch.io lets you pay more than that if you're feeling charitable - and the current average contribution is around $11.52.

Hey man, I know this is a rant, but in case you didn't know there should be a setting to resize things to make a black bar at the top. Google it for your phone, but for samsung it's something like "full sceeen apps".

That read beautifully, must have been such a good moment. Hope you didn't catch any flack for that though?
