Introduction
I begin in the name of Allāh  Lord of the Worlds, and sending
Salutations on our beloved Rasūlullāh .

Allāh  has created a system where consumption of certain

foods or substances are considered Ḥalāl – permissible. Other foods
or substances are considered Ḥarām, impermissible. It is part of our
faith that we only consume Ḥalāl and stay away from the Ḥarām. If
a person consumes any food or substance which is Ḥarām, knowingly
then this is considered a sin.

In this booklet, I wanted to talk mainly about the consumption of one

such substance which is a major issue in our community and that is
alcohol. However I will also discuss other intoxicants as well which
have a direct effect on our community.

As we all know in this world, wine, and alcohol in the general sense
for Muslims is prohibited, which means it is Ḥarām. Unfortunately,
there are sections of our community that still consume alcohol and
many also take drugs. Many also sell alcohol and deal with drugs.
Nowadays, you can also get ‘legal highs’ which give the same sense
of intoxication but can be purchased legally.

3|Page
Alcohol and Drug abuse have become something which has
unfortunately become accepted in many cases, overlooked and
normal in our community when in fact it is a Major Sin.

Intoxication can lead a person into a spiral of sin, causing harm to

oneself as well as other people who are close to them. We have
recently seen a massive increase in the amount of drug related
crimes resulting in many fatalities, many times both the victim and
the perpetrator are from our own communities.

How many parents see their own children become involved in drugs
and alcohol? Have the children even ever thought what pain they
are putting their parents through let alone going against the
commands of Allāh? Imagine how a parent feels when their
child is caught selling drugs and is sentenced to incarceration.

As a community we need to do more to tackle this issue and our first

step should be educating ourselves and our children with the Islamic
reasoning behind the prohibition.

There is a very detailed explanation about this subject in the Tafsīr

MꜤāriful Qur’ān which I shall Inshā’Allāh summarize in this booklet
adding some information on how these substances can also be
detrimental to one’s health.

I pray that Allāh  accepts this small piece of work and after
reading this booklet helps us to understand the reasoning behind the
prohibition and why we should keep away from this Major Sin.

The Days of Ignorance
In the times of Jāhiliyyah, the times of ignorance, drinking wine
was normal. It was a common practise as well as other customs
such as gambling and using divining arrows. When Rasūlullāh
 came to Madīnah, it was the same over there.

Now normal people had no idea of the effects of these practices

but Allāh  makes some people use their reasoning to not
go towards anything which goes against it. In the same way our
Rasūlullāh  naturally had a distaste for things which
would be made Ḥarām later on.

There were also many Ṣaḥābah  who had never touched

wine even though it was not prohibited in the beginning of Islām.
You will also see many people today in society, they might not
follow a religion or the consumption of wine might not be
prohibited - Ḥarām in their religion, yet they use their own
reasoning and do not drink. They stay away from all forms of
intoxication.

6|Page
The Initial Revelation
Allāh  sometimes sends down revelation due to an event
or someone asking Rasūlullāh  a question. This is called
the Shāne Nuzūl, or cause of revelation.

It so happened that some of the Ṣaḥābah  were deeply

concerned about the consumption of alcohol. ꜤUmar ,
Muadh ibn Jabal  along with some other Ṣaḥābah 
from the Anṣār came to Rasūlullāh  and told him how
wine and gambling causes a person financial loss and also affects
a person’s ability to reason and they wanted his advice with
regard to this.

Allāh  then revealed the following Verse in answer to the

advice they sought. This was the first verse which was revealed
about wine and also the first step in trying to stop the people from
consuming wine and gambling.

7|Page
 Allāh  says in Surah Al-Baqarah:

ۡ َ ۡ َ ۡ َۡ َ َ َ َُ َۡ
َ‫كَعنََٱۡلمرََ َوٱلمي ر‬
‫س‬ َ ‫۞ يسـلون‬
ُ‫ب‬ ۡ َ َ ُُۡ
ََ ‫ك‬ َّ ُ َٰ َ َ َ َ ۡ َ ُۡ
‫لَفيهماََإثمََكبيََومنف َعَللناسََِإَوثمهماََأ‬
َ‫ق‬
ۡ َّ
1
‫منَنفعه َمَا‬
“They ask you about wine and gambling. Say in both there is a
great sin and some benefit for people. And their sin is greater
than their benefit”

Now this verse mentions some benefit for people, some good, this
could mean the taste of the wine and a feel good factor if a person
drinks it. These factors are short lived, temporary and are far
outweighed by the amount of bad things they can lead to.

The meaning in this verse of the word ‘ithm’ is sin and everything
that may become a preliminary to sin, which means anything that
can lead to the sin. For example, if a person consumes alcohol, it
causes their senses to become dull and weakens their ability to
reason. A human beings’ reasoning is what acts like a brake

1
Qur’ān 2:219

8|Page
against committing evil deeds. Once this brake is not working, it
opens the door to commit all types of deeds.

The actual word in Arabic for wine is ‘Khamr’, and Khamr means
to cover. So in the same way a woman’s headscarf is called a
Khimār because is covers her hair, wine covers a person’s senses,
so is called Khamr.

So the above are spiritual or religious effects caused by the

consumption of alcohol. Alcohol causes a person to not realise
what they are doing and can lead them to committing bad deeds.

Intoxication in General
Are these rulings just for alcohol or are other intoxicants also
included?

The rulings will include everything which intoxicates, so that

would include drugs, glue, legal highs etc. Some people use the
excuse that only the prohibition of wine is mentioned in the
Qur’ān so it is ok to consume other substances. Let’s look at the
evidence:

In a Ḥadīth narrated in Sunan Tirmidhī,

َ َ ُ َ
َ َ‫ع ْنَابْنَع َم َرَقال‬
َْ ُّ ُ َ َّ َ َ ْ َ َ ُ َّ َّ َ َّ ُ ُ َ َ َ
َ‫َم ْسك ٍرََخر‬
ُ ‫َُك‬ ‫قالَرسولَاَّللَصَّلَاَّللَعليهَوسلم‬
َ َ ْ ُ ُّ ُ َ
2
َ‫َوُكَمسَك ٍرَحرام‬
Ibn ꜤUmar  narrates that Rasūlullāh  said ‘All
intoxicants are wine and all intoxicants are forbidden’

Sunan TirmidhI 1784

Alcohol & Cancer
Now let’s look at the physical effects on a person who consumes
alcohol; we know it damages certain body parts, the stomach, the
liver, and the kidneys. It can cause alcohol poisoning. Here is a
list of cancers which can be caused by alcohol consumption:

 Increase the risk of Bowel Cancer

 Breast Cancer
 Laryngeal cancer which affects the voice box
 Liver cancer
 Mouth cancer
 Oesophageal cancer (food pipe)
 Pharyngeal cancer (upper throat)3

Drinking & Driving
I have already mentioned that it stops a person from being able to
reason. If a person was able to reason, then why would they not
allow a person to drive after consuming alcohol?

So it is agreed in our country that after consuming a certain

amount of alcohol a person is no longer considered able to drive.
How does intoxication affect a person’s driving?

 The brain takes longer to receive messages from the eye

 Processing information becomes more difficult
 Instructions to the body muscles are delayed resulting in
slower reaction times.
 You can experience blurred vision, double vision which
affects your ability to see while you are driving.

How many people are killed due to drink driving, or due to a

person being under the influence of drugs? On average in our
country 3,000 people are killed or seriously injured in drink drive
collisions.4

So you can see that a person consuming alcohol can also endanger
somebody else as well.

Social effects of Intoxication
So what about the Social effects?

When a person drinks, it costs money, people forget that alcohol

is a drug and is addictive. People become addicted so they have to
drink, if they don’t have enough money to pay for the addiction it
can lead to other crimes to try and feed the addiction. It is also
expensive, when people go out with their friends or work
colleagues, they are all expected to buy one round of drinks for
everyone, and it can prove very expensive.

If a person gets drunk, they let their guard down, they may reveal
something which they have been entrusted with, imagine a
person who holds an important position in government or in
industry gets drunk and lets some important information slip
through.

A person who is normally of sound mind, does things he or she

would never dream of doing, they could even commit adultery
and then wake up the next morning without even remembering.

In a study carried out in 2016 by the Guardin, Alcohol is estimated

to cost the NHS around £3.5bn a year which is £120 per tax payer.
The NHS uses 3.6% of its budget treating alcohol related
conditions.

ꜤAbdullāh ibn ꜤUmar narrates that Rasūlullāḥ  said, the
person who drinks wine (Alcohol), Allāh  will not accept
his Ṣalāh for 40 days. If he repents then Allāh  will accept
his repentance. If he then returns to drink then Allāh 
will not accept his Ṣalāt for 40 days, if he repents then Allāh
 will accept his repentance. . If he then returns to drink
then Allāh  will not accept his Ṣalāt for 40 days, if he
repents then Allāḥ  will accept his repentance.

If he then returns to drink a fourth time then Allāḥ  will

not accept his prayers for 40 days and if he seeks repentance, Allāh
 will not accept his repentance and he will be given to
drink from the river of Al-Khabāl, they said Oh Abu ꜤAbdur
Raḥmān, what the river of al-Khabāl, he said it is a river from pus
for the inhabitants of the fire.

So from the above we can see the seriousness of drinking alcohol,

that a person Ṣalāh will not be accepted for 40 days.

15 | P a g e
The Initial Advice
So now we have seen the effects let’s go back to the first verse that
was revealed with regards to wine.

ۡ َ ۡ َ ۡ َۡ َ َ َ َُ َۡ
َ ‫۞ يسـلون‬
َ ‫كَعنََٱۡلمرََ َوٱلمي‬
‫سر‬
ۡ َ َ ُُۡ
ََ ‫ك‬ َ ۡ ُۡ
ُ‫ب‬ ‫لَفيه َماََإثمََكبيََ َو َم َنَٰف َُعَللنَّاسََِإَوثمهماََأ‬
َ‫ق‬
ۡ َّ
6
‫منَنفعه َمَا‬

In this verse, it doesn’t clearly tell us that consuming wine and

gambling are Ḥarām, but tells us that their evils may lead a person
to committing sins. So it is advice to people, telling them not to
do it, not to consume wine or gamble.

Now when some of the Ṣaḥābah  heard about this, they took
the advice and stopped drinking from that moment in time. Now
there were some others who thought that the verse has identified
wine as a cause for sin and it is not Ḥarām, so if we make sure we

6
Qur’ān 2:219

16 | P a g e
do not commit these evil deeds, what harm could there be if we
continued to drink?

This is an argument which is also made nowadays, that if we can

control how much we drink, what harm can there be in
consuming alcohol? The same for drugs, if I just have a puff or
two of a joint, I will feel a quick hit but it won’t lead to me
committing any sins. In order to answer this, let’s see what
happened after this.

The Second Revelation

So we have a group of Ṣaḥābah  who have taken the advice
from the Qur’ān and stopped drinking, and others who have
carried, on as the ruling for its prohibition has not been revealed
yet.

One day one of the Ṣaḥābah  invited some friends to his

house. They had dinner and after they all started to drink. Now
the time for Maghrib Ṣalāh came, so they all stood up for Ṣalāh
and selected one among them to become the Imām. The Imām
started to recite the Quran and while he was reciting Surah al -
Kāfirūn he got it wrong, because he had been drinking. So now
the second step was taken.

17 | P a g e
 Allāh  now revealed the verse in Sūrah An-Nisā’:

َۡ‫نتُم‬َ َ َ َ َّ ْ ُ ۡ َ َ ْ ُ َ َ َ َّ َ ُّ َ ََٰٓ
َ ‫َيأيهاَٱَّلينَءامنواََلَتق َربواَٱلصل َٰوةَوأ‬
7 َ ُ ُ َ َ ْ ُ َ ۡ َ َٰ َّ َ َٰ َ َٰ َ ُ
َ ‫سكرىَحَّتَتعلمواَماَتقول‬
‫ون‬
“Oh you who believe, don’t go near Salāh when you are
intoxicated until you know what you are saying”.

So now drinking had been prohibited when it was time for Ṣalāh.
So when it was not time for Ṣalāh some of the Ṣaḥābah 
continued to drink at those times.

So you can see that the excuse of drinking to an extent where a

person is in their senses to not commit any evil deeds now reaches
another level. Will the intoxication cause a person to remember
to pray there Ṣalāh if the time comes? Will they be able to pray it
properly if they are intoxicated? Will they be even able to tell if
they have made a mistake whilst praying?

Imagine reading the verses all muddled up and completely

changing the meaning! From the above example we can see that

7
Qur’ān 4:43

18 | P a g e
it does have an effect, so now people cannot pray when they have
been drinking.

Now as we said, drinking had not yet been clearly prohibited, it

was only prohibited during the hours of Salaat. So this was the
second stage.

19 | P a g e
The Third Revelation
Another incident then followed, a Ṣaḥābah  invited some
others to his house and after dinner they started to drink. It was
Arab custom at the time that people used to recite poetry, so they
started reciting poetry mentioning their accomplishments and
excellences when one of the Ṣaḥābah  recited a poem which
satirized the Anṣār, the Ṣaḥābah  from Madinah. Satirize
means to say bad things, ridicule.

Now when the Ṣaḥābah  read the poem, a young Ṣaḥābah

from the Anṣār got angry and hit the other Ṣaḥābah on the head
with a camels jaw bone causing him serious injury. When this
happened Rasūlullāh  raised his hands in prayer and
said,

‫اللهمَبنيَنلاَيفَاۡلمرَبياناَشافيا‬
‘Oh Allāh, give us a clear and conclusive guidance in the matter
of wine’

20 | P a g e
Now when Rasūlullāh  made this dua, Allāh 
sent down the definitive ruling in Sūrah Al-Mā’idah:

ُ‫ابَ ََوٱ ۡۡلَ ۡز َل َٰ َم‬ َ َ‫سَ ََوٱ ۡۡل‬

َُ ‫نص‬ ۡ َ َّ ْ ُ َ َ َ َّ َ ُّ َ ََٰٓ
َُ ۡ‫ۡلَ ۡم َُرَ ََوٱل ۡ َمي‬‫ينَءامنوَاَإنماَٱ‬
َ ‫يأيهاَٱَّل‬
َ ُ ۡ ُ ۡ ُ َّ َ َ ُ ُ َ ۡ َ َٰ َ ۡ َّ َ ۡ
8
َ ‫رجسََم ۡنََع َملََٱلشيطنََفَٱجتنبوهََلعلكمََتفلح‬
‫ون‬
“Oh you who have believed, indeed wine (intoxicants) and
gambling and (sacrificing) on stone altars and diving arrows are
but defilement from the actions of Shayṭān, so avoid it so that
you may be successful”

So now it was clear that the consumption of wine was unlawful

Ḥarām.

8
Qur’ān 5:90

21 | P a g e
The Gradual Prohibition
We can see from Allāh  infinite wisdom that this process
of prohibition was done gradually. The first verse that was
revealed just pointed to the fact that consuming alcohol can lead
a person to sin and is sin-prone. And some Ṣaḥābah  left it
there right away.

Then the next stage was to tell people not to read Ṣalāt if they
drank, so Allāh  was advising people to leave this habit.

There is very good advice in this, that any habit which can cause
a person to become forgetful of their Ṣalāh needs to be reviewed.

The final stage was to completely prohibit the consumption of

Alcohol. If the prohibition had come immediately in the
beginning of Islām then it would have been difficult for some of
the Ṣaḥābah  to leave this habit of a lifetime in an instance.
We have to remember that this is an addiction for many people,
and when a person becomes an addict, it is very difficult for them
to let go of the habit suddenly, it has to be done gradually.

So firstly advice was given to refrain, many people took this advice
and stopped or at least reduced their consumption to a level there
it would not lead them to sin, and then the ruling came where
people were not allowed to drink during the hours of Salāh, so this

22 | P a g e
reduced the consumption even more. Now when the time came
for them to completely stop it was made much easier.

The Order Comes

So what happened when the order came to stop drinking?
ꜤAbdullāh Ibn ꜤUmar  reported that the proclaimer, the
person who made the announcements on behalf of our Prophet
 went around the streets of Madīnah announcing that
wine was now forbidden.

Many Ṣaḥābah  took the wine they had and poured it in the
street straight away. Whoever had wine in a vessel in their hands,
threw it right away. Anas  was serving some of his friends
at the time. When they heard the proclaimer, everybody there
said ‘now pour all this wine down on the ground and break all the
cups and goblets and ewers and pitchers’.

It is said on that day, wine was flowing down the streets of

Madīnah like a stream of rainwater.

The people had been ordered to take whatever wine they had to a
certain place, but there was not much left there apart from the
wine which was in the market for commercial sales. The wine was
put there without any hesitation. Rasūlullāh  went
there himself and slit many of the leather wine-bags with his own
hands and the rest were done by the Ṣaḥābah 
23 | P a g e
An Example of Obedience
The Ṣaḥābah  were the best example of obedience. One
Ṣaḥābah  was a businessman and he used to import wine in
from Syria. He took his whole capital and bought a whole stock of
wine to sell.

Now when he came back to Madīnah with all of his supply, he

found out that Wine was now Ḥarām, so what was he to do? He
left the supply on a hillside and came to see the Prophet 
and asked him what he should do. Rasūlullāh  told him
in accordance with the divine command that he should tear out
all those leather bags and pour the wine in them on the ground.

Now look at the behaviour of this companion, he never hesitated

for a moment. He immediately went and poured all of the wine
that he had invested all of his money in, into the ground.
Subhānallāh, he never argued once, or tried to find a way out to
see if he could get back any money from this massive investment
he had made by purchasing all of this wine. Without a thought he
obeyed the command of Allāh  and of our Prophet
.

So the question could arise from here, could he not have gone
somewhere else and sold the wine to some people who could drink
it, some people who were not Muslims?

24 | P a g e
Can we sell Alcohol?
We know as Muslims, we are not allowed to consume alcohol, but
what is the ruling for selling it?

We see many restaurants, shops, off licences which are owned by

Muslims, and they sell alcohol, so what is the ruling?
َ َ َ ْ ََ ْ َ
َ ‫عنَأنسَبنَمال ٍكَق‬
َ ‫ال‬
ً َ ْ َ ْ َْ َّ َ ْ َ َ ُ َّ َّ َ َّ ُ ُ َ َ َ َ
‫َو َسل َمَيفَاۡلمرَعْش َة‬ ‫لعنَرسولَاَّللَصَّلَاَّللَعليه‬
َ َُ ْ ْ َ ََ َ َ ََ ََ َ َ َْ َُ َ َ َ
َ‫اَوال َمح ُمولةَإَلْه‬ ‫ِصهاَومعتِصهاَوشاربهاَوحامله‬
9ُ
َ ُ ََ ْ ُْ َ ََ َ ْ ُْ َ َ َ َ َ َ َ َ َ َ َ َ َ َ
َ ‫َتاة‬
‫ََل‬ ‫وساقيهاَوبائعهاَوآُكَثمنهاَوالمشَتيَلهاَوالمش‬

In Sunan Tirmidhī, there is a Ḥadīth narrated by Anas ibn Mālik

, he said that Rasūlullāh  cursed 10 people with
regards to wine,

1. The one who presses it (squeezed it),

2. The one who ordered it to be pressed (squeezed)
3. The one who drinks it

9
Sunan Tirmidhi 1216

25 | P a g e
 4. The one who carries it
5. The one who he is carrying it to
6. The one who gives it to someone to drink
7. The one who sells it
8. The one who consumes its price
9. The one who buys it
10. The one who it was bought for.

So you can from the above all of these people have been cursed by
Rasūlullāh  so we should refrain from doing any of
these. If we sell it in our shops or restaurants, then we should seek
repentance from Allāḥ  and stop selling it right away. If
we fear that we will lose business because of it, then know that
Allāh  is the best of providers, our sustenance is in his
hands, if we have a clear and good intention, Inshā’Allāh we will
get more barakah, more blessing in our earning by abstaining
from these actions.

May Allāh  protect us from the all the evils of all sins.

26 | P a g e
Conclusion
So you can see from what we have discussed, how the prohibition
of alcohol came about in Islām and the gradual steps taken by
Allāh  to implement this ruling. We can see the personal
dangers, the social dangers and the economic dangers as well.
There is risk to a person own health and also another person’s
when they are under the influence of alcohol, drugs or any form
of intoxicants.

So if anyone is involved in any of the things mentioned, repent to

Allāh  this month. Ask for forgiveness, have genuine
regret that you should not have done it in the first place and make
a firm intention you will not do it again. Allāh  is the
most Merciful, the all Merciful, he can forgive the greatest of sins
and in this month let us make this change.

May Allāh  give us all the ability to stay away from all
prohibited substances and keep us all safe from the effects & evils
of all types of intoxication.
