Taking drugs will just make your life harder. Seek refuge in Allah from the Shaytan, for surely this thought is from the shaytan.

Whaat are you serious

u'r kiddin right??!

Gahhgh! Thats me agreeing with Skye twice in a week. Truely a sign of armageddon.

asalam alaikum wr wb,

I was going to say the same thing as Skye Ephemerine. Tell his parents!

I was in a similar situation as you once and I didn't do enough. To this day I wish I'd done more. I knew a brother, who was the son of my friend's aunt. He was a good and mild mannered person, who'd somehow got involved in drugs.


Over the years I saw him deteriorate in front of my own eyes. He went from hunk to skunk. I always felt I should say something but dithered until one day I saw him in the street and asked why he's doing this to himself. He started to cry


He said he couldn't believe anyone still would want to talk to him and thought everyone hated him and was disgusted by him. I told him not to be silly and to stop destroying himself. He said he couldn't stop. I asked why. He told me that he was angry and couldn't face life. I pressed further and he told me he'd been sexually abused as a child by a relative and taking drugs was the only way he could cope. I was so shocked, I wanted to grab that man by the collar and bring him infront of everyone and shame him almighty. I knew the lil........................

I asked if his mom knew. He said she did but she can't do anything. I was so angry, but there was nothing I could do as the brother wanted to keep it confidential. I left it at that and never spoke to him again.


Some time passed and he deteriorated even further. He looked close to death and was all skin and bones. But he didn't die from an OD. His body was found bloody and beaten near our local high street. We never found out why he was killed, but rumour is that he was trying to get into a car in his drugged out state and the guy's who the car belonged to jumped him and beat him to death.

Sometimes, I wonder how he is and then I remember he died. I still can remember seeing his blood on that pavement and his sad life.


So please, please, please, don't worry about him hating you. Report him for his own sake. It's always harder living with knowing that perhaps you could've done more.


wa alaikum asalam wr wb.

Ye but sometimes parents can't do anything either...but who knows maybe his parents will inshallah..Sis Anonymous..i knw it's nt tht easy to get to people but sometimes you have to counteract..whn he says that it doesn't affect him..HOw does he know? Does he know whats goin on inside him? and why seek refuge in temporary things when he can seek refuge in Allah (S.W.T) ..if he asks why shouldn't he do it..well i already said it's suicide..it will get him nowhere in life ..not in this.nd not in the next..so where does he want to end up?? He's stronger then this nt jst sum pathetic loser on the street..he got caught up bt he has to get himself back up..grow up and mature...hope I'm helping sis

jazaak Allaah khaayr bro, means alot wallahi

muslimah sis, ur story made me tearful, ya rabbi.. inna lillaahi wa inna illaahi rajoon, may Allaah be forgiving n merciful to those poor souls subhan Allaah, ameen..



dunno how to contact his parentz ive neva talked to 'em, met 'em only once n just briefly yearz ago n dunno how to begin with.. i thot abt first talkin to the boy n see if he really aint listenin then talk to his sizter n maybe it wud be better if she talked to their parentz.. is dis a gud idea insha Allaah ? i guezz i just need confirmation n support frm ya all..


but he seems alrite to be honest, he goes to school n does his things, he laughs n speaks n it makes me think.. am i maybe overreactin' ?? i knw thts wht he thinks.


everyday i just get more confused abt him, i knw it iz all my fault actually, i dunt speak to him anymore so now my thoughts r really killin' me n im imagining things n thinkin n thinkin, do dis or say dat but i cant seem to be able to n whenever i try da words come out wrong..

let me know who you are - Anonymous3.

^ lol...fat chance of that happening. People tend to use the anon account to hide their identities.

I really don't get some Brothers and Sisters out there, I know brothers that were ON THE LEVEL, and when I mean on the Level, I mean talk the talk, walk the walk and what not but how do they get to the level were they re-mortgage their house in order to feed their habbit... I dunno. But it always starts of with the small one, and you think to your self... nah it's just a phase, he'll get over it.. and the dude steps up coz that roll isn't doing it for him no more

This bro once said, it was the loneliness that got to him, and you know this **** crack heads, they will be your friend... in fact they will be the best friend you ever have! they will stay with you, listen to you and heck give you that roll like it grows on ****ed trees... and why do they do this? it's because they know that once you are hooked, you are playing the game with them and they will use and abuse you. Hell once your in too deep, know one really wants to know you apart from the crack heads, Insha'Allah the brother ain't in too deep.

Insha'Allah, the brother realises that his time and money can be spent on better things and tell him that people that give into peer pressure are weak. And an individual always feels lonely without Allah(SWT), no one can fill the void like He does. Some how he has to realise he is wasting his time and energy on this, tell him to get into a boxing ring and some bashes to the head can give him the same buzz, maybe it might change his mind.

i get u bro rashid.. Allaah knws best wht goes on in their head if therez any action in it at all..

He does taek-wondo since he was little 'n muay thai a few years back... The bro is in shape 'n iz intelligent does well in school 'n iz well-mannered + dusnt take the hashish issue seriouzly ..

i must talk to him until i can give further updates.. insha Allaah when i get the chance 'n .. courage..

Inshallah

Asalaam u alaikum,

May be somehow you should advise the brothers who take drugs to attend this lecture, because brother mutah (who will be lecturing on the day comes from similar background, Alhomdolillah Allah has guided him and he left all for the sake of Allah.) may be his lecture will be a benefit for those who take drugs

I shall see you all in there insha'Allah...

asalam alaikum wr wb,

I understand. It's very difficult knowing what to say, espeically when the person is not family. It took me years to talk to the bro I mentioned. However, I doubt that you talking to this brother will have any affect, since he seems to be enjoying what he is doing and he won't want to know. Talking to his sisters is better as they can then inform his parents and together they can do something about it. I hope you do that soon inshaAllah.


wa alaikum asalam wr wb.

salams

hmm maybe u shud get sum1 close to this guy sum1 that he respects to talk to him it really isnt a good idea to talk to his parents infact it cud just make things worse .trust me. if he is really really deep in2 drugs theres not much anyone can do unless he himself comes to his senses.he has to be reminded that its gonna take a long time to detox hes gna have 2 b patient and very strong willed.

the best of luck
