Fariq Naik – Alcohol is prohibited in Islam, Hinduism and Christianity

The 14th most common question that is there in the minds of non

Muslims is that why does Islam prohibit having intoxicants? Why

is alcohol prohibited in Islam?

Allah subhanaw taala says it's reminder chapter number five was

summer 90 Yeah you Alladhina amanu or you believe in normal camera

well my serial most certainly intoxicants and gambling well I'm

swab well as lab dedication of stones, donation of arrows,

ritual, minimal shaytaan are an abomination from Satan's

handiwork. First, anybody who are looking to abstain from such

abomination that to me prosper. So your Allah subhanaw taala is

telling us that alcohol is prohibited, gambling is

prohibited. fortunetelling is prohibited. All these things are

prohibited in Islam.

And it's similar message is he mentioned the Bible.

It's mentioned in the book of Proverbs chapter 20, verse number

one, Wine is a mocker strong drink is raging, and whosoever is

deceived thereby is not wise. It's mentioned the book of FC in

chapter number five was the 18th and Be not drunk with wine.

So even the Christian scriptures, the Bible, it prohibits having

alcohol,

which is mentioned in the book, I've seen Shabnam five was Psalm

18.

Even the Hindu scripture that prohibits having alcohol, it is

mentioned several times the way does that alcohol has been

prohibited.

It's mentioned Manas, Matthew chapter nine, verse number 225 to

28 that alcohol has been prohibited. Now let's analyze what

are the logical reasons why alcohol has been prohibited in

Islam.

Today, science tells us that a human being has an inhibitory

center.

And this inhibitory center, it prevents a human being from doing

things that he considers wrong.

For example, a person knows that using abusive language, especially

while addressing his elders, it is incorrect.

And when he has to attend the call of nature, he knows that he has to

go to the restroom, and as the inhibitory center will prevent him

from doing so in public.

But when a person has alcohol, his inability center itself is

inhibited. This is precisely the reason that when a person is

intoxicated, many of these people they tend to use abusive and foul

language. Neither do they talk, nor do they walk properly. Many

even urinate in their clothes, they do it in public.

So today, scientific research tells us that when a person is

intoxicated, he commits many things that are prohibited.

According to the FBI report, in the year 1990 alone, 1756 rapes

took place every day, and majority more than 50% of the rapes. They

were committed in the state of intoxication.

The statistics tell us that 8% of Americans they commit *

that means every 12 to 13 American you meet he has committed *.

That means having sexual relationship with your close

relatives. For example, father with daughter, mother with son,

brother with sister to start sixth tell that 8% of Americans they

commit *.

And majority of the cases, either one or both are the people that

are in the state of intoxication.

Today, the most dreadful disease in the world, it is eight. And the

major cause of this is due to the consumption of alcohol.

Many of the people they say that I'm only a social drinker, I have

only one or two pegs. I did not get intoxicated.

Every person before he started having alcohol. He never had the

intention of becoming alcoholic. Every person started drinking

alcohol as a social drinker. And I challenge you to show me a single

social drinker who has been drinking for several years and has

not got intoxicated, at least once in his lifetime. He may have

gotten intoxicated.

And imagine even if you get intoxicated once and if you commit

a crime of * or *. The crime is so great that is a

repairable the person who has committed the crime cannot be

forgiven. It is an irreparable loss
