Yes, it's just consumption of alcoholic foodstuffs that's proscribed. It might get murky if you're dealing with some really regressive people and you're also sanitizing with burbon, but otherwise it's a pretty settled topic.

Interesting. My city has many breweries of local spirits so when we were low on hand sanitizers during COVID, the government allowed these breweries to make their own sanitizers.

It probably would have been nice to include a warning label for our Muslim friends saying that these products might not be allowed for them to use!

If your local distilleries were anything like mine, the sanitizer they produced was denatured, even the most absurdly orthodox would have had shaky grounds to complain (naturally done too, they just didn't separate the methanol when distilling). So no worries there!
