THE HARMS OF ALCOHOL

Quran and alcohol. The prophets concern of alcohol. Stories regarding alcohol. Alcohol the mother of all sins. The benifits and harms of alcohol. Preventing alcohol.

Say, in both of them is major sin, and there is some benefit for men, but the sin of them is far greater than benefit � (Surah Baqarah)

THE PROPHET AND ALCOHOL

During the early days of Islam, consumption of liquor, just like other ills and evils of society, was also prevelent.

When Rasulullah migrated from Makkah to Madinah he found that the Madinites were also indulging in drinking. The masses were so attracted by the superficial and deceptive benefits offered by drinking that their minds became oblivious of the harmful effects and the evils lurking within these addictions.

Our Prophet was the finest model who set the best example of his sublime characteristic, so much that whatever was yet to be declared Haram, His habit and nature made him detest it from the very outset. Besides Rasulullah other Sah�b�hs also refrained from consuming alcoholic beverages even when these were Halaal.

On Reaching Madinah some of Sah�b�h realised the evil in liquor. So, Hazrat Umar Farooq ., Maaz Ibn Jabal .and some of the other Sah�b�h approached Rasulullah and questioned him regarding alcohol and gambling, which they thought were ruining not only man�s intelligent but also his wealth.

In response to this query, the above verse was revealed and it constituted the first of a series of revelations leading to the final and conclusive verse, which prohibited and declared Haram both gambling and liquor.

Although the above verse dose not prohibit alcohol outright, but it never the less presents a �Mashwarah� (advice) for abstaining from the usage of alcohol. This is why some of the Sah�b�h , after hearing this verse immediately stopped consuming alcohol and accepted this mashwarah.

STORIES REGARDING ALCOHOL

On the other hand some of the other Sah�b�hs resumed that this verse did not declare alcohol Haram, so they declared that it overtakes full precaution and law, that a mediate consumption of alcohol would not be harmful.

However, shortly an incident occurred which brought about a sudden change in the situation. One day, Hazrat Abdur-Rahman Ibn Auf had invited some of his companions, and as was the custom of the Arabs they had consumed alcohol after their needs.

Thereafter, while still in a state of intoxication, the Maghrib Sal�h was performed. The Im�m who was also drunk made an error in his recitation of Surah Kafiroon. Upon this, the second step was taken to prevent the consumption of alcohol, by the revelation of the following verse: �O Believers� do not approach Sal�h while intoxicated.� (Surah Nisaa)

This verse now declared alcohol Haraam in clear-cut terms but the consumption was for the duration of Sal�h times, and at other periods it was still permissible. With this second warning many more of the Sah�b�hs refrained completely from drinking Alcohol, reasoning that what good can there be in something that deprives one from Sal�h.

There were others however, who drank liquor during the intervening periods of sal�h until the following incident took place: Uthmaan Ibn Maalik invited a few Sah�b�hs for a meal. After the meal, as was customary liquor was served. Thereafter, they became involved in another Arab custom, reciting poetry praising oneself, family and clan and simultaneously teasing and belittling others who didn�t belong to that group.

During this gathering, Hazrat Saad Ibn Abi Waqqas recited a few lines of poetry in which he criticized and belittled the Ansars of Madinah. Hearing this, an Ansari youth became enraged and threw a bone at him, which inflicted a severe wound on the head of Saad Ibn Waqqas . He then complained against the youngster to Rasulullah , after which he made dua�a to Allah: �O Allah! Grant us a clear cut for regarding alcohol.�

In response to this the 3rd and 4th verses concerning the complete prohibition of alcohol, were revealed as part of Surah Ma�idah:

"O you who believe! Intoxicants, gambling, idolatry and arrows (for seeking help on decision) one an abomination of order that you may be successful.

Shaytan seeks only to cast amongst you enmity and hatred by means of strong drink and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of Allah and from his worship, will you then not refrain? � (Surah Ma�idah 90)

Allah in his wisdom, firstly disclosed the evils in alcohol, then prohibited it at Sal�h times and finally declared it absolutely HARAAM.

ALCOHOL THE MOTHER OF ALL SINS

Just as there lies great wisdom in the gradual revelation of laws prohibiting alcohol, there is also wisdom in the strait enforcement of severe punishment for drinking alcohol. Therefore, the Prophet referred to alcohol as the mother of sins because after consuming it, man can indulge in other major sins.

Once a pious man met a woman, who invited him towards committing a sin (adultery). The man flatly refused. After her constant insisting, she still failed. Thereafter, she gave him a choice of options, 1. Committing adultery with her or 2. To murder her newly born child, whom had she begot from her previous husband. Or 3. To consume some alcohol which she possessed. If he were not willing to comply then she would scream and falsely inform the inhabitants of that place that he had raped her. The man upon pondering decided to consume the alcohol, taking it to be least harmful of the three sins. Upon the consumption of alcohol, he became intoxicated, and then consequently, he killed the child and also committed adultery with the woman.

In one Hadith, Rasulullah has said that Im�m and alcohol cannot gather (are not compatible) with a person (Nasai)

THE BENEFITS AND HARMS OF ALCOHOL

People generally are quite well acquainted with what benefits are attributed to alcohol, for instance enjoyment of temporary happiness, strength increase of a short time, colour becomes clearer, initially (as to some medical claim).

Compared to the few limited benefits of alcohol its risks and harms are so varied that, perhaps so many disadvantages may not be present in any other thing.

1. Through alcohol, the stomach gradually loses its ability to function properly.

2. Causes loss of appetite.

3. It spoils ones facial features (Appearance)

4. Makes one age quicker.

5. Weakens and reduces the ability to think and speak properly.

6. Causes heart failure

7. The progeny of alcohol are weaker.

8. Creates fights and enmity between people

9. Leads towards grave sins, often adultery and murder are the direct results of drinking.

10. Thousands of pounds are wasted in this vice

PREVENTING ALCOHOL

Dr M Robertson states, �If half the pubs and bottle stores were closed, I guarantee that half the hospitals and jails will remain closed.�

Those who have stopped repented sincerely have not failed to arrive to the conclusion that alcohol is the mother of all evils, a deadly poison from which one must abstain.

May Almighty Allah save the Ummah, especially the youth from this sin and everything, which calls upon His wrath. Ameen.
