Summary

Drinking milk is permissible, as there are hadiths showing that the Prophet SAW drank it. Practices mentioned include mixing milk with water for personal, family or guest use, and serving the person on the right first when giving a drink. Mixing milk with water is not allowed if the intention is to sell it, as that counts as deception. The ruling also notes that reciting the basmalah before eating and drinking is recommended.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
