Question:-
Is nutmeg Halaal or Haraam?
Answer:-
Fataawa Mahmoodiyyah states that to eat nutmeg itself is prohibited. However, if it is used in minimum quantity in food as Masala and is not intoxicating then it will be permitted. [Fataawa Mahmoodiyyah Pg.84 Vol.27] However, we advise it is best to use Halaal substitutes instead of using nutmeg.
ALLAH TA’ALA KNOWS BEST!
