The Ruling on Juarak and Qat
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Yes. I inform you that what is called juarak, which is used for smoking via the shisha, is known to me to be made by fermenting some fruits. What is the ruling on drinking it via the shisha? And what is the ruling on consuming qat?
Answer:
All of it is wrong, all of it is evil, and its harm is great, and its evil is great, even qat, which is known in the south and in Yemen, its harm is great. And the trustworthy ones have informed us of many of its harms. So it is obligatory to leave all of it, and to beware of all of it, and to prevent all of it on the part of the state. We ask Allah for guidance for everyone.
The presenter:
