In a post on Food and Fuel America, the author says:
A prominent Saudi scholar has issued a warning to youths studying abroad against using ethanol in their cars since they could be committing a sin.
According to this report in Al Arabiya, using ethanol is a sin because it contains alcohol:
The article notes that this is not an official fatwa and just a personal opinion that should be studied more.
Maybe it's just a coincidence that Saudi Arabia is the world's major oil producing country and holds a vast reserve of oil.

It's a sin that American consumers are sending their money to repressive regimes around the world because we're held hostage by foreign oil.
It's a sin that Americans die in foreign conflicts to protect these foreign oil reserves.
It's a sin that Americans continue to be forced to use dirty fossil fuels rather than cleaner burning renewable fuels like ethanol.
It's a sin that Americans aren't fully employed working on building a vibrant renewable fuel industry for a stronger America.
