إلا في الخمر والخنزير خاصة
Translation: Except specifically with regard to wine and pigs.
Quduri sets apart wine and pigs from the general rule. Hanafi jurists explain this limited classical treatment by reference to the recognised beliefs and legal position of dhimmis in their mutual dealings.
This does not make the sale of wine or pigs permissible for Muslim traders. The earlier Muslim-specific prohibition and this historical exception concern different legal contexts.
