I know Muslims who drink. Some drink beer and wine but draw the line at spirits whilst others enjoy a good single malt. Yes consuming anything that causes intoxication is haram but not everyone follows their religion to the letter.
Most of the male moslems I worked with over the years not only drank spirits but gloried in doing so. They still went to mosque every Friday and sat in the canteen not eating and reading the Quran during Ramadan. I remember one telling me vodka was the best thing ever invented. Put me in mind of that quote of Charles Mingus' saying the same thing about heroin, "If God made anything better, he kept it to himself."I’m sure you will find Christians who covet their neighbour’s !!! if you look for them or Jews who enjoy bacon sandwiches.
