The Ruling on Cultivating Qat

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our brother Sa'd from Yemen has a remaining question. He says: Is there a sin on me if I cultivate qat out of need and poverty?

Answer:
It is not permissible for you to cultivate qat, because qat is forbidden due to the harm in it and the bad effects it has. So it is not permissible for you to cultivate qat, nor to sell it, nor to eat its price. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
