Well, something like that the translation of a Cola, now being quite frequently sold in France, trying to find a market in Germany:
"Ne buvez plus idiot, buvez engagé: buvez Mecca-Cola / Be engaged! Drink: Mecca Cola"
They promise to spend 10% of the profit to Palestinian works, another 10% to European works.
(French) Website Mecca Cola
(The slogan in German will read, btw:" Be engaged - drink conscious".)

Well, I can't say it's exactly the most catchy slogan I've ever heard.
I heard it's flat because carbonization is considered immoral under Islamic law...
Slogan ideas:
Mecca's the One. And Mohammed is its prophet.
I'd like to teach the world to jihad...
Mecca: the taste that defleshes.
How about Britney Spears in a burqua:
"Mecca, for those who blow up."
Is Mecca-Cola
a beverage at all? I thought it was liquid form of RDX or a version of the Molotov cocktail.
When 'Cola' is a beverage, Mecca-Cola is it, too.
By the way, entrance to Mecca is permitted only for Muslims. Do the bottles of Mecca-Cola contain any disclaimer that the manufacturer is free of liability in case some "infidel" or apostate drinks the beverage and finds him/herself in the intensive therapy ward?
I'm not sure. if such disclaimer have to be posted by French law, but you are free to contact the producer and ask them.
OK, I shall do this when I am finaly back from the IDF. I see, Koran has a potential to promote sales. What will be the next Islamic product? Maybe, popcorn with enhanced explosive ability?
Or anthrax-boosted hamburgers?
Well, you can get kosher products in quite a few special shops in France as well.
Good to see you back, steissd!
Hmm, I am not so much concerned about products being kosher. My ethnic origin is mixed, and I am rather a Christian (without affiliation to any particular church congregation) than a Judaist.
Thanks, jespah. Unfortunately, I shall disappear for more than a week once more. My service has not been accomplished, I simply had a leave.
Drink Mecca and throw a rock Or Mecca cola it's better than 72 virgins
Although this isn't of great interest in the USA ...
