Whosoever drinks wine in this world and dies whilst having consumed it and not having repented from it will not drink it in the next world. The following Hadeeth (prophetic narration) clearly states that the Noble Prophet prohibited intoxicants:Ģ) Ibn 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, reported that the Messenger of Allah said: "Every intoxicant is Khamr (wine) and every intoxicant is Haraam (unlawful). If he repeats it for the fourth time, kill him." He (Jaabir) continued: "A man was later brought to the Prophet who had drunk wine for the fourth time.

There are also many narrations stated by the Noble Prophet (may Allah exalt his mention) with regards to intoxicants, such as:ġ) Jaabir, may Allah be pleased with him, reported that the Noble Prophet said: "Whosoever drinks wine, whip him. Allah, thereafter, states in the next verse, that which means: "Satan only wants to cause between you animosity and hatred through intoxicants and gambling and to avert you from the remembrance of Allah and from prayer. What does Islam have to say about it? How should Muslims regard drugs? To know this, we must see what the Quran and the Sunnah (prophetic tradition) say regarding intoxicants and narcotics.Īllah Almighty states in the Noble Quran what means: " O You who believe! Indeed, intoxicants, gambling, stone alters, and divining arrows are but defilement from the work of Satan, so avoid it that you may be successful." Īllah Almighty has described using intoxicants, amongst other things, as being appalling, despicable and hateful acts of Satan, and He has commanded us to abstain from them. The young Muslims of today are facing an ever-increasing number of dilemmas.
