Faith IQ – Is Addiction A Disease & Are The Consequences Forgiven By Allah – Shaykh Navaid Aziz

			Is addiction a disease and are the consequences forgiven by Allah subhana wa tada
		

			when we look at the addictions, we'll find that there are certain hereditary genes that make people
more susceptible to addiction. So from that angle, it can be considered a disease. Now what we need
to understand in such a situation is that Allah subhanho wa Taala does not burden a soul more than
it can bear. So regardless of it being a disease or not, what we want you to look at what is within
our control, and whatever is within our control is what we need to change. Now one of the taboos in
the Muslim community is the stigma of seeking professional help. So going to a psychologist going to
psychiatrists going to a counselor or therapist, this is something that is frowned upon and looked
		

			down upon. And this is what we need to change as Muslims, just like we don't feel shy going to the
hospital for a broken arm. We should not feel shy going to a specialist when it comes to issues
related to mental health. So if someone is suffering from addiction, by all means, seek the
professional help that you need and inshallah whatever is a consequence of it. leave that up to
Allah subhanho wa Taala we know that our Lord is the most forgiving and is the Most Merciful. All
you need to do is try our best and get the help that you need. And Allah Subhana Allah knows best.
