چکیده:
Nowadays, one of the devastating calamities that is a blight on human societies is the issue of consuming intoxicants and various types of narcotic drugs, which strips humans of their power of thought, creativity, ability, effort, and constructiveness, and places the foundation of the family, their religious beliefs, and convictions at risk of disintegration and destruction. The clear religion of Islam commands humans toward goodness and the use of everything that is beneficial, and prohibits anything that is harmful; as stated in the noble Hadith: 'There shall be no harm nor reciprocating harm in Islam' (Zamakhshari, 1417 AH: 2/173). Causing harm to oneself or others is not permissible in Islam. For this reason, the religion of Islam has declared the use of narcotic drugs haram (forbidden), because it causes physical harm and many other corruptions. Just as wine and other intoxicants have countless harms, narcotic drugs, in all their types and kinds, entail life-threatening, financial, social, and moral damages, because the cause and motive between both are the same. For this reason, in this article, the reasons for the prohibition of narcotic drugs from the perspective of the Quran, Sunnah, and the sayings and fatwas of scholars and mujtahids of Islamic sects are presented.

HABL-UL-MATIN Scientific-Specialized Quarterly Vol. 12, No. 48, Autumn 2024 The Harms and Jurisprudential Ruling of Narcotic Drugs from the Perspective of Islamic Schools of Thought 1 Ahmad Saremi Abstract Nowadays, one of the home-destroying calamities that is a plague on the body of human societies is the issue of consuming intoxicants and various types of narcotic drugs, which has stripped humans of their power of thought, creativity, ability, effort, and constructiveness, and has placed the foundation of the family, their religious beliefs, and convictions at risk of disintegration and destruction.
In the terminology of the sacred law of Islam, narcotic drugs refer to a substance that causes lethargy, weakness, alienation, indifference, and a false sense of pleasure, eliminates reason, takes away the power of perception, awareness, and thought from a human being, removes them from their normal and natural state, and gradually causes the emergence of a dangerous condition called addiction (see: Quran International News Agency website, The Philosophy of the Prohibition of Narcotic Drugs in Islam).
The mentioned hadiths explicitly declare wine and every other intoxicant to be prohibited, and narcotic drugs, like other intoxicating substances, fall under this ruling; rather, in terms of destroying and annihilating humans, they are many times higher than them.
* Ibn Taymiyyah says regarding hashish: This solid substance is forbidden; whether it causes intoxication or not, and only corrupt and impure individuals consume it for fleeting pleasure, and in this regard, it has no difference from wine.
