Serously?? Is this Islam
-
I don't know what to say....
-
It doesn't claim to be islam, i didn't see it on the website..
Furthermore I don't see anything wrong with it..
They are just helping people by curbing their feeling of hunger and thirst during their fast.. and making profit from it.. what's wrong with that? If you don't feel the need for it, well just don't buy it..Salam / Peace

Making money out of religion is not wrong? Is it ok to chemically induce yourself so you do not need to feel the reason of fasting? Why not just take some amphetamine instead, that is by far the most effective way.

when reasoning disappears idol worshiping steps in, The more the idol worship, more we need to face the wrath of Allah. This happens to any religion or ideology. prayer, fasting, offerring etc... everything is for our survival and well being and not for Allah(he needs none), we need to first understand what those rituals are for.

- People have been making money out of religion for thousands of year,
let me rephrase that,
People have been making money from the stupidity of other people for thousands of year. - Should we blame those who are making money out of other people stupidity? Or should we blame those who are stupid enough to be taken advantage by those people who are making money from their stupidity?
- As for your amphetamine suggestion; I have much better and cheaper solution than you, ; for those who doesn't want to feel the 'effect of fasting'; well... just don't fast!
PS I used to buy one of this

Until I realized my own 'stupidity', yet I didn't blame the compass maker or seller for making money from my own stupidity, instead I blame myself for my own stupidity.Salam / Peace

I totally get what you mean, but I don't agree. There is a limit where advertising and playing on people's stupidity is not OK anymore. Religion IMO is taboo to profit finacially from.

Perhaps somewhat related
A few days ago I walked through central stockholm, and saw a rolling LED sign on a storefront that had some monotheistic truth programmed. I noticed that it said "...ALLAH...WORSHIP THE CREATOR NOT CREATION"
Usually I try to zone out billboards and adverts in the city, but this caught my attention. I wanted to see more, but was instead assaulted by sales messages for telephone subscriptions.
I felt upset and violated. I don't think the owner/programmer of the sign had bad intentions, but for me it felt bad - God's name caught my attention, and then it turned out someone wanted me to buy something. I don't think God should have to share space with commercial advertising. -

That's what 'religious people' do on daily basis, making profit from religion isn't it?
There's a similar example, an 'anti-menstruation pill' is a best seller every year during 'hajj to mecca'.
Many women from all over the world buy those in order to avoid having a menstruation during the time of hajj..
Because they believe it shall nullified their 'hajj'..What's your opinion toward those who make and sell the 'anti-menstruation pill' in this case?

Unbelievable, this reminds me of my hypocrite strategy I used to sleep all day in ramadan, missing all Salat times and wake up like an hour before its time to break my fast....lol. Allah helped me lose that hypocrisy and become better, lets pray that these tablet selling and consuming people be guided by God too.
PEACE

Peace everyone!
I would think it is fine. I mean the pill probably has fibre/bulk material in it to slow down your digestion.
You could see it as something that would aid you in trying to uphold His Majesty's commandments!
His Majesty states that to fast is better, and so taking the precautions of being able to fast is a good idea.
It is just like drinking coffee for a jult of energy & better concentration during night/dawn to read the Quran.
It is just like taking supplements (e.g Coffee, Gingko,Gensing, DHA/Salmon, Garlic etc) that would help/improve your ability to do things.
Would you not buy things in the sake of His Majesty?

Yepp, 100% correct, those pills exist.....a big seller....
And that's not all. These pills they are selling will induce a chemical abortion. So statistically speaking out of all the million muslim women who have done hajj when in the first month of pregnancy, at least a few have (without knowing) ececuted an abortion.
The people who endorse the pills, allows them to be sold, know about this because it says so in the fine-print. Very islamic indeed.

Like I said; that's what religious people do, making money from religion...
And that's why they always tell people to 'defend the religion' as it's actually the same as saying "help me to secure (or grow) my income".
It happens everywhere and every time on any religion.I feel sad for those people who are so naive, stupid and gullible..
Salam / Peace

Organized religion is a bestseller everywhere. It's time people get rid of organized religion.

my relatives take these pills, come to think of it, some of them kind of plan out hajj around their cycle

Please inform them to read the fine print in case they might be in the situation of becoming a parent. It was actually my wife who informed me about this, she was asked to take this pill "just in case" during her Hajj. Thank GOD she for some reason did not, because she was in fact three weeks pregnant
