You mean cannabis? If so, then it's harmful - so it's haram. Not to mention a waste of money and all the crimes people commit to fund their habit.

yes haram.. Allah subhana watala tells us:

Holy Quran: Do not with your own hands cast yourselves into destruction (2:159).

Kill not yourselves, for verily God has been to you Most Merciful (4:29).

I was going to mention the medicinal uses, but didn't know Islam's stance on it. But given the addiction factor, I'd say it is haram.

Weed isn't adictive sis.

 

[SATalha]

Dark chocolate is good for your heart and chocolate in general makes you feel good. It's full of antioxidant compounds called polyphenols, which has several effects on the body including being helpful in preventing cardiovascular disease.

Don't put candy down either. In an emergency it can save the life of a diabetic suffering from hypoglycemia.

that doesn't make it halal though

some health experts also recommend two glasses a red wine a day to prevent heart disease! :X

It isn't physically addictive. It is all in your head. This is coming from a "former pothead"

are u implying tht even if drinking three glasses of red wine a day will save ur life, u wont do it knowing thts ur only means of survival. some orthodox medicine we take also contain minute quantities of alcohol, can taking such medicine be termed haram? same with canabis.

But that isn't the only means of survival and at the end life & death is in Allah's hands. And as far as I know no doctor has prescribed wine to a heart patient to save their life. That's just the recommendation of health experts. Just like the 5 a day portions of fruit & veg is.

Yes, it is haram.

I can't answer your question regarding Medicanal useage of cannabis, but like you said, they INDULGE in it. They have no REASON to smoke it. They are commiting a major sin.

Weed isn't adictive sis.

I agree.

says who? :?

Says tomtomsmom and I.

I smoked weed from the age of 15 til the age of 18/19, daily. Heck, sometimes twice or three times a day. i simply 'enjoyed the buzz'. When i quit, i quit for good. I quit because i decided to become a true Muslim. Since that day i haven't touched it, and even when people around me smoke it, i have no cravings for it whatsoever.

 

[snakelegs]

aren't you required to obey the laws of the land? (whether just or unjust).

 

[Snowflake]

Oh and about the minute quantities of alcohol.. I consider it haram. But I don't know what the opinion of some scholars is. We can research it if you like.
