The analogy between a drug addict and an alcohol addict regarding the warning
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the addict to narcotics analogous to the addict to alcohol in the warning mentioned that he will not enter Paradise?
Answer:
It is more severe. The addict to narcotics is more severe than the addict to alcohol. Narcotics are more destructive to the human being and to society than any disease, and may Allah protect us from it, because they strip away humanity and corrupt the sensitive mind. The user becomes someone with no reason and no sense of honor. He becomes a sick burden on others, and his affair ends in death. This is more severe than the danger. So narcotics are more severe than senility. Yes.
