You are absolutely right, people don’t follow others who promote this smoking garbage
Trust in Allah, bros and sis. You don’t need recreational marijuana when you have religion. If you’re in pain and marijuana has been prescribed for you then it’s OK to use it. But, remember, use it don’t abuse it.
How can I quit ? Idk what to do sir
Yall want to much from life why fo I wany water why do I want food why do feel the desire to procreate natural oder is the only law your wisdom is futile
The fact this clown thinks weed makes you feel sedated says everything you need to know about his religion
Thank you
AsalamAlaikum my brother, im a new revert to islam and do struggle with smoking with marajuana, and what i would like to say, is we need a Muslim that actually has expierence with marajuana to speak apon what it does to us, because i will say you are wrong my dear brother …maybe im bias . . . but all of us are not the same , i will not go to mosque on marajuana , i will make salah sober out of the love and respect of allah and to make my intentions as clear as possible, but i also discovered islam while smoking, and a majority of the time when i smoke is when i aftually want to study more about islam, re read chapters in our beautiful quran , im actually trying to get closer to allah while i am smoking , more than when i am sober , and alot of us Humans do benefit highly from this organic plant that allah has sent us … i do believe theres should be a new standard for marajuana and maybe more muslims that are hiding it should stand up more for it if you at heart you truely believe it benefits us , as adults i would say to be more clear , because for the young developing mind it 100 percent isnt going do anything beneficial enless its some extreme mental disease , love you all my brothers and sister sorry if this may cause some fury but i just want to be honest and speak apon it
Dear Brother,
As salaam alaikum.
May ALLĀH grant you heaven. Went over your video concerning weed. To remain totally truthful, I am extremely sorry, with all love respect and Du’a, your conclusion is impossible to be True. I believe weed to be makhruh, perhaps lower in gradient contrast, but absolutely impossible to be haram. I am sorry brother, it is difficult to type all the information on my detailed studies, experiences documentation, over the past 7-9 years. I am willing to do a video detailed discussion on the subject. Yes, you may certainly say it is not 100% Halal in every setting of Human existence in the Duniya Simulation we are currently in, however, sorry, at least for some people under certain conditions such as:
1. Not disrespecting ALLĀH TA’ALA in thought mind or action (at least as much as humanly possible)
2. Not facing Makkah, facing 180 degrees away is best effort.
3. Trying to refrain as much as Humanly possible from smoking through mouth, rather just taking smell through nostril
4. Nano-dosing and at any cost limit to under 3.5 grams within a 24hour period (with advise of specialist recommendations, I would advise even to limit further to 1/3rd of even that) with lowest potential weed THC % restricting to only when necessary.
5. Not trying at all before 30 years of age and not continuing once one turns 40 years old.
6. Not smelling or smoking during prayer times.
7. Always taking shower and brushing teeth following.
8. Asking ALLĀH TA’ALA for help by reciting Sayiddul Istighfar , or at least “Ya Gafur, Faghfirli, Ya Gafur” prior and post smoking/smelling.
9. Refrain from all communications while at high state and only being in meditative singularity with ALLĀH TA’ALA.
10. Maintaining healthy diet post high state.
11. Absolutely refraining from social interaction while at high state.
12. Remaining humble and asking for forgiveness from ALLĀH since we are at the end of the day, human.
If someone makes his best human effort towards all the above mentioned. I do not think given what things humans may have to deal with what trauma they have to survive, since human is not allowed to take his life, a smaller loss is better in the eyes of ALLĀH than a bigger one.
We cannot say it is haram unlike cigarettes or Alcohol.
As someone who has extensively done his work, bi ithn ALLĀH, may ALLĀH make it safe for me to conclude after much time effort and painstaking experience conclude that although not for everyone, as a matter of fact not for most, and, although not for every situation, as a matter of fact not for most, some times, it is TRULY impossible to call it haram.
Yours Truthfully,
Faisal Mohammed.
Slave of ALLĀH.
100 Precent True
I stopped when I was in jail. It didnt stop me directly from smoking inside butt when your freedom is at risk and u need clean urine to get released on parole u do everything. Once I got outside I did fine for 3 months then started smoking again. During this ramadan I have a hard time stopping and thats why I wished I was in prison during ramadan and in isolated regime also. There no prison in the world where u cant get weed/hasj inside. Even in isolation people find a way to smoke….. Its hard stopping and find this brother warning the youth very important. I am lucky I started smoking when I became older 21 years of age because I studied biology. I knew if drugs taken early I would have permament brain damage because your body needs to grow.
The damage is real but u dont feel it much in the brain only lungs because of tobacco. I still play games hamdullah on hardest dificulty and figure out puzzles. I am also able to do high math and physics in work like game development and simulation of the market. We talking about numbers trillions.
The teaching I learned from the wise was that drugs is for the old because when u young u have a live. Thats why my hearth breaks when young adults smoke and waste life.
For me it wasnt a choice I was forced. I had at 19 years old hernia and it was really serious like someone stabbing a dagger in spine all day. The docter prescribed me oxycotone, morphine and other medication for the stomach and it caused my hair to fall down and walk like a zombie.
Then one day I was listening rastafari music and he said. "JaJa made the herb from pure nature so why would the fruits be harmfull if the poison of snakes kill."
Something like that dont remember anymore but what they basicly mean is. God made the plant like a cure. So I tried it and started recovery, by running. I was still feeling the pain but it was less. I could work, Drive and finally be alive and move again. The hernia isnt cured yet but the pain I can cope with it easier.
Its a waste of life true, but if u out of options and need pain reliever then Ganja is the solution. I have seen people stuck on meds of docters and they never look healthy. Hamdullah I did what was right in my hearth and think about my health. I am not saying it will make u better but if u broken already it will help trust me! But if u healthy better stay school or get a job or just train and do something cool on video’s. Allah always helps those who go throught hardest time in life. God always does that.
I got baptized and did shahada and got circumstition just to say 3 is one god. Only unity would cure the world if people knew. Nice preaching brother. 💜💯
Eh?
I think the only people who should speak on this are those who have had experience with it. I notice allot of people who speak on this in this way have no experience with the consumption of it ave it’s clear that they don’t
It feels so hard to quit I have been smoking Weed for the last 10 years and I don’t even enjoy it anymore all it does is give me more anxiety and stress !
Islam is a hateful relgion
With this logic, medication is haram.
The thesis the bro is talking about is most likely funded by big pharma, hence why you have an opiod crisis.
Ignorance to thc and cbd. Bro, please educate yourself.
Your body has cbd inhibitors in it. Interesting fact.
Recreational use should be forbidden, but medically, there are so many benefits.
Yes I agree to all of this however morphine and other drugs is PRESCRIBED and is way worse even Tylenol is worse than Marijuana I don’t think marijuana should be used to channel thoughts or mute how I’m actual feeling if anything I just feel more and stress less however intoxicating is a goal with weed and then it messes up your deen
Brain damage is false –
And Medical Marijuana is hard to get and addiction is an option for example I feel like a person like me anger issues and ulcers I don’t need to get high to recover and I feel just the same when I do smoke that amount and this is why I feel like everyone should smoke at least ONCE to fully understand all the benefits vs negatives and there definitely not far greater than the other it’s a balance you either have both a good immune system due to marijuana and if your too high you seem like you don’t even matter what pain is and the thought become less stress and relaxed and do note tolerance is also a thing so if I had a just a puff or 3 to remove my illness then why can’t i it removes bad digestive problems,muscle bone problems and yet we so called scholars who never tried the medicine automatically puts it down by saying oh there’s more bad then good when it’s definitely more on the good side same way how alcohol works yes it’s forbidden to drink or consume it but it’s halal to apply it on the body as medicine an aid so how come marijuana can’t be viewed as the same way!?
Shut up! It’s a medicine! You don’t know shizz…
I am trying so hard, please pray for me brothers and sisters i lost my 4 yr old son a few years ago and i haven’t been the same! I want to change, i want to stop i NEED and CRAVE for Allah to give me the strength to do so! Heal my heart Allah, hear my cries, protect me from this addiction that is taking over my life, i know this is not what you want for me!
Oh no! Weeds Haram I must stop!! Hell NAH fuck that shit I’m smoking till the day I die 🤣🤣🤣
thank you so much for this great video, very educational
I call my weed the Quran because burning that shit will get you stoned!
What about if you use it spiritually like the wise monks in India? Can it not be used to return to God?
Schizophrenia is only prevalent in people predisposed to it you should read the studies. If your family doesn’t have a history of it you should be safe.
Very underrated video please make dua for me to try and reduce my marijuana smoking habits
😂😂😂 but anti-depressors or strong pain killer aren’t haram !!! Let this guy speak pass your way listen to someone else that knows this subject !
Smoking weed is but CBD oil for pain is ok as it does not make u high. astaghfirullah if i’m wrong.
Marijuana cannot be compared to alcohol. Not even close. Marijuana is not for everyone. It is possible to have emaan while consuming marijuana
Do the best you can in observing Islam to the best of your capacity. Listen to Islamic lectures and gain knowledge about Islam.
AstagfirAllah !!!
I smoked weed and will never touch it again as a sufi, and in bayth I haven’t touched it over a year I also quite smoking cigarette.
I used to smoke everyday Joints after joints, wasting your life Alhamdulliah have tawakal in Allah and he will help you to Get rid of it
It would just make you paranoid anyway- you should not do it.
Marijuana is not an addictive drug by nature so if you find yourself addicted its a sign you already have some unresolved issues.
I researched for a conference, related to medicinal marijuana. This is halal, as it is a possible treatment for mental and physical health. There are strains that dont veil the brain, rather enhance it. Is this halal? Smoking is haram, as it damages your lungs anyway. I’m solely talking about the plant strains. Thank you, stay safe.
RIGHT ON!
This man dont know shiiii…. Sad.😊
You describe attributes that cannabis doesn’t have.
That is the biggest issue with this common misconception of Cannabis being a harmful intoxicate, which we continue to be shown it is not.
It’s easy to fool people who do not know.
If weed is Haram, most pharmaceuticals are.
Sober 9 years now, was never able to stay sober Until I found Islam. It’s not possible to pray and not stay sober. If someone isn’t sober they stop praying…. It’s either one or the other. Repenting cures the pain, so no reason to get high or drunk anymore. If anyone’s struggling with addiction. Pray like you breath water. Fix all your mistakes. It hurts but it’s worth it. Humble yourself Infront of Allah. It will heal you.
I think he needs to do more research into cannabis and how to use it properly and not misuse it
I cant say that weed is an intoxicant because it doesnt intoxicate in the same way as alcohol.
If it’s not socially acceptable to do it excessively, it’s a drug, same as alcohol.
Ok I’m going to say something controversial..i wouldn’t put marijuana and alcohol in the same category,hear me out..they’re both not permitted but for different reasons,alcohol lowers your vibrational state of the soul making you more susceptible to Shaytaans suggestions and he can even take over..that’s why people black out at times..they can become irritable angry and kill even..with weed if you use it with the right intentions you can have very profound realisations about your purpose, even understand the depth of meanings of life,Quran etc leading you to a very spiritual experience BUT AND THERES A HUGE BUT that spirituality should be attained by prayer and following the deen not with shortcuts like weed..Islam trains your soul
Fuj
I feel attacked
Cannabis is sacred and you have no right to condemn another man (scientist) who knows the medical facts and has years of real life experience. Big Pharma pushes opiates, and mainstream pushes alcohol. Cannabis is alternative MEDICINE. Do not judge, lest you be judged.
Medical marijuana serves a crucial role for numerous patients grappling with conditions like cancer and diabetes, among others. It’s far more than a recreational substance, and it’s essential for individuals to understand its medical benefits rather than relying solely on misconceptions perpetuated by media portrayals.
sugar is bad for you as well because you feel hyper after eating that is kind of drug as well who working on dopamine and you can die from diabetes and when you eat a lot of sugar, you also feel high if you take cbd oil you do not damage your lungs and it is much safer than alcohol or cigarettes god created the pineal gland in our head and during every sleep we are drugged with DMT your reasoning is simply wrong God created to expand our consciousness through drugs
Talking shit
No that’s not what the study out of sweden said at all. It said if you have a HISTORY of schizophrenia that cannabis will trigger the reaction in an otherwise "normal" person.
Its a plant medicine
