Rahmathulla Quasimi, a Sunni Muslim preacher from Kerala has issued a fatwa against juice. Why? Apparently, juice was introduced by Jews and Muslims must not drink juice. He urged his followers to boycott all varieties of juice because juice was introduced by Jews who are enemies of Islam.
He says that juices are bad for health and that one should chew whatever one consumes.
“We must chew whatever we consume, chew your water. Never drink the juice. Fruits shall never be mixed up with water. There is a race called ‘Jews’. They are our enemies. Juice came from Jews. Jews…. Juice!” Rahmathulla says.
“Juice was introduced by Jews”, he says three times and claims that there was no juice in the world before.
“Who introduced juice in the Middle east? Jews! So never drink juice” Maulvi Rahamathulla Quasimi says.
