Question
Is designing graphics for HHC Products business halal or haram, The products may contain <0.3% THC and are not for the purpose of intoxication. They only give a feeling of relaxation and do not take away the ability to differentiate between right and wrong. But I am only asking if designing graphics like logo, packaging, and advertisements for such businesses is allowed?
Answer
There are a variety of products that are sold containing HHC. These include vape cartridges, sweets, cookies amongst others. Based on our understanding these products which contain HHC are consumed for the purpose of getting high even if the effects are not as high as other forms of intoxicants. The level of intoxication would differ based on the quantity of HHC in the product and also how much is consumed. As an example one HHC cookie can contain 50 mg of HHC which is understood to cause a ‘powerful high’.
Any product which leads to intoxication in this manner would be unlawful to sell and consume. It would also be impermissible to design graphics for these products as by doing so one is assisting in the sale of something impermissible.
