10% of all profit goes to charity. By choosing to boycott major brands, consumers are sending a powerful signal - that the exploitation of people cannot continue unchecked. Mecca and Qibla Cola represent the conscious choice of people who reject injustice and exploitation.
To find out more watch the following Insha'Allah (length: 3mins 23 sec):
yes, but they both give me restlessness, not to mention sleeplessness.
I wonder if it was the cola, or the rides at Chessington, cos the last time i went 2 Chessington(theme park) i drank lots of Qibla cola and i cudn't sleep all night.
But when i went another time, i slept perfectly fine when i got back....hmmmmm...
Hmmmm....Silly me.....but that effective, but i also used to drink STRONG coffee(it was hard coming off coffee, darn!).......always used 2 sleep fine.........
Ain't that funny. Coffee is suppose to keep you awake but it makes some ppl sleepy. I think cola has more than caffiene bro (not halal ones) I heard Cola Cola containe cocaine. A tiny amount and thats why peeps get hooked on it. I used to gulp down Red Bull but it's stopped having effect on me now
It would have been better to give it a different name, one that suggested an Islamic background, but not one with a holy name on it. It just doesnt strike me as good that soda cans having the name "makkah" on them will be crunched up and thrown on the streets amongst the other garbage. I mean it is afterall the name of the Holiest City.

Not only does it make me sleepy, it also makes me pee-pee.

That's a myth. It may have done back in the day, but not anymore.

I've never tried that as I am afraid of what I would do 'under the influence' of caffeine that strong
And I agree with Ahmed and the dodgy names. Why not call it 'Tastee Cola'? That's like Tastee Wheat from the Matrix, except it doesn't taste like runny eggs.

true said there brother.........Hmmmm.....how about 'Al-Sharaabul mu'mineen'

Under the influence? It aint that strong bro. Just makes you feel wide awake if your feeling a bit low and lazy. I used to swig a can if I had loads of work to do. Give it a try, it works!
Isnt the real formula for making coke still a secret?
But the ingredients are on the back .
Well, there is always the asda brand, cheap pop variety. It tastes not as nice as coka cola but it does the trick - just don't tell your guest that its cheap one. if they complain about how it tastes just say "oh I like it that way"
Someone said to the Prophet, "Pray to God against the idolaters and curse them." The Prophet replied, "I have been sent to show mercy and have not been sent to curse." (Muslim)
