Greetings Adb'Majid,

alcohol to my understand is a chemical which if taken in a large amount will cause intoxication :thumbs_up eace:

It doesn't have to be a large amount - have four shots of vodka and you'll feel the difference, I can assure you.

Anyway, wouldn't your statement also apply to many drugs other than alcohol?

Greetings greenbud,

Wow, Mr. Green Bud, I would never have guessed that you approve of marijuana! You secret agent, you!

Actually, I'm a fan of marijuana too - I think it's very relaxing, and it causes far fewer social problems than alcohol. (I say this even though I haven't had any for a long time).

It's an intoxicant, though, so it's bound to be forbidden in Islam.

Peace

Marijuana does cause far fewer social problems than alcohol. FAR FAR fewer. It's relaxing, it prevents brain tumors, you're not violent, you're alert (to a certain extent)... it's a very peaceful drug (unless mom wants you to take out the garbage or do the laundry.. not a very peaceful situation!)... but Islam + Marijuana does not mix. There's no way you can read the Quran and be high. After reading a page, you'll forget what book you're reading!! Or imagine making salat! Halfway through the salat, you'll forget what rakah you're on... or when you're in prostration, you'll fall asleep! Astafirallah!! Also, MJ can be harmful to a certain extent. You can smoke a room full of it, and you won't overdose... but that stuff makes you lazy... you lose your natural high and have to depend on mary jane to make you happy.. OH and another thing that used to annoy me about marijuana was that I became a COMPLETE airhead. That stuff kills braincells... I'm not kidding! I used to hate going to work and being that "airhead" of the group. You become clumsy, you forget things... Allah doesn't make these things haram for nothing!

 

[SirZubair]

theres a difference in opinion but according to most ulamah it is..

In my opinion,it is haram.

I've smoked since the age of 9 :grumbling ,i quit at the beginning of january,i havent touch a ciggy since.Allhumdulilah.

Thanks to allah s.w.t for giving me the will power to do it,and thanks to shaykh hamza yusuf for giving me the inspiration to do it.

 

[SirZubair]

Another reason i'd say Smoking is haram is :

your health is a blessing from Allah s.w.t

By smoking,youre not becoming healthier,you are slowly killing yourself.

When you stand before your lord on the day of judgement,he will question you about everything you've done,Including what you did with the blessing that had be bestowed upon you.

What is going to be your reason for ruining your health on purpose?

"...i smoked because my friends told me i'd be cool.."
"..i smoked 'cos the pretty lady in the short skirt on the billboard said so.."

Sorry - not good enough.

I've never heard that it prevents brain tumours. Have you got any more info on that?

This is all absolutely true, although the jury's still out on the dependence part. Smoking or eating it in moderation won't cause any serious problems; smoke it every day and you'll just get stupider and stupider...

I still support legalisation, though. I think people should be able to make their own decisions - plus it would mean that all the profits made from selling the drug would be in the hands of legitimate businessmen or government agencies rather than criminals.

Try searching on webmd.com I would like to say I read it there. From experience, I can tell you there's a mental dependence to it. My first couple of days off weed I was completely bummed. Masha allah I was doing it for the deen, so that helped. But if it wasn't for Islam, I would still be smoking! Of course, you would have to smoke it everyday for you to get any kind of dependence, like you said. Being a muslim, of course I wouldn't agree with legalizing it... from a non-muslim perspective... I would rather see the money go to people on the street who actually need the money, instead of government official's pockets. I would rather them make money selling marijuana, rather than making money stealing from me. I do agree with decriminalising it, though. I don't see how it is fair for someone to go to prison with rapists and killers for selling some MJ. Allah knows best.

Allah knows best.

And allah says no.

the end.

I'll check it out - thanks.

Street dealers could start their own business and be above board.

I would rather them make money selling marijuana, rather than making money stealing from me.

Right, but don't forget that criminal gangs often sell drugs in order to make money for their other activities. At one time in Northern Ireland if you were buying marijuana the chances were good that your money would be going on to fund the IRA. Similar tactics go on around the world.

I do agree with decriminalising it, though. I don't see how it is fair for someone to go to prison with rapists and killers for selling some MJ.

I agree.

Sidi,im an open and honest person,so i will come out and say this straight.

I've been to rehab in the past,while i was in highschool,i got kicked out of school and was told that i wont be allowed back until i got myself admited to a rehab.

I was going through a rough time and was on all sorts of drugs,you name it,i've done it.

Dont ever consider going to rehab.I went there knowing lil' bits and pieces about drugs,i came out with a masters degree.

The best thing to do is,Taqwa,Learn about your religon,do alot of zikr,make the Love and Fear of allah s.w.t grow in your heart.

ALways keep this in mind "Fear your actions,especially those in which case your witness will be your judge"

Insha'allah that helps.

Wa'salam.
