Dead Sea

[Ruks]

Are we (Muslims) allowed to use products from the Dead Sea- stuff like mud masks etc etc? I ask because i thought under that sea are remains of some community that were perished because of their sins.

Please let me know - cheers!

well... just off the top of my head i'd say yes--- cuz i mean those ppl are gone and it's not like if u use the mud masks u'll turn into them...

i searched but i didn't find anything... they're all israeli sites...

Thanks sis i know what your saying - but i just need to be absolutely certain - don't wanna put anything haraam on maself!

To be safe just dont use them , there are thounsands of other brands out there , so just see what could work for you

Sorry, but I don't think it's harram.
Isn't everything from the sea halal, including eating sharks!
If the product is Israeli then I won't buy it just because I don't want to support their economy and make them stronger, but that is as far as would go.

I find it hard to believe that god is not going to allow the use of a natural resource (which he created) just because it's on the wrong side of the border (which we created ourselves)....hope this helps.

apparently we are not allowed to use the products because the land has been cursed - i guess i'll continue with my search. about the economy thing, i guess we all pay towards israel in one way or another - but its good discipline if we can stick to our principles
