Brothers and sisters, the Shariah guides to every good deed and forbids every evil deed.
 
 Hashish
 
 Hashish is a kind of drugs; it is produced from the hemp. Hashish is forbidden in Islam; Imam Az-Zahaby in his book, Al-Kabaer (the grave sins), says: “Hashish, which is made of hemp leaf, is forbidden like the wine; who  smokes hashish would be as punished as the one who drinks wine. Hashish  is harmer than wine because it ruins both mind and mood and makes the  man effeminates and does not care for the chastity of his women. On the  other hand, wine is harmer than hashish because it leads to quarrel and  dispute; both wine and hashish prevent remembering Allah and performing  prayer … It is said that hashish is impure like wine, and this is true …  Anyway it is included in what Allah and His messenger had prohibited,  and it is included in the prophet’s, peace be upon him, saying: “All  intoxicants are forbidden.”
 Drug tablets
 
 These tablets are very harmful, because they are  made purposely for evil known causes. Moreover they contain great amount  of harmful substances including a substance which is said that it is a  mix of alcohol, anesthetic and opium. The following are some of the  harms of this substance:
 
 1. It  is harmful and intoxicant; we have been prohibited, in the Hadeeth that  is narrated by Ahmed and Abu Dawud, from having any harmful or  intoxicant substance.
 
 2. Experiments  had found that having these tablets hurt the brain and, in some cases,  cause dementia. Moreover, they develop unnatural secretions cause  vomiting, dizziness and accelerate heart beats.
 
 3. Addicting  these tablets causes spleen purulence that gets worse by time till the  point of no return. The spleen becomes totally damaged and inters the  phase of swell and rot besides secreting strange substances weaken the  strength gradually to ultimately kill the addict. What would be his  excuse when he meets Allah almighty Who prohibited every harmful thing,  warned him and forbade taking one’s own life?
 
 4. The addict person ruins his family and dignity by his own hand. Moreover he loses his status in the Muslim community.
 
 5. He  becomes an evil model for whoever imitates him. And he would be  required to bear the burden like that of one who followed his evil  practices without theirs is diminished in any respect.
 
 6. This  kind of people opens the gates of evil and invites the others to it.  Invitation to evil deeds is not by words only; rather it is by actions  also. Whoever addicts drugs and incites the others (by his actions) to  do the same, would have the burden like that of who followed his evil  deed (without theirs is diminished in any respect) for knowing the truth  and rejecting it.
 
 7. Drug  tablets’ harm is not confined to who takes it; rather it affects his  family, children and companions because of socializing.
 
 8. Experiments  had found that these tablets destroy the body, because taking such  tablets causes the spread of diseases as we have mentioned earlier.
 
 9. These  tablets cause neurological convulsions and paralyses of extremities as a  result of blood clotting which causes circularity disorder. These  things lead to weakness and heart attacks affects rest and hardens life.
 
 10. These  tablets cause blur like the blur that the drunken person feel it,  however this kind of blur is more dangerous and chronic; it makes the  person see mixed and doubled pictures. Moreover, he may see the colors  differently.
 
 11. Having  drugs develop fear in the heart of the addict; his fear accompanies him  all the time. He fears the evil end and the diseases in addition to  other fears prevent him from sleeping and foresight. It lowers his  spirit, takes from him the factors of manhood. Therefore he abandons all  virtues, gains all vices and become of the worst of (moving) living  creatures with Allah; the deaf and the dumb, who understand not.
 
 
 O believer brothers, fear Allah by not hurting  yourselves and protecting it from the punishment as a result of passing  prohibited pleasure. Take care of these killer intoxicants and take  lessons of their uncountable victims who had gone with their deeds;  Allah almighty reproached who made his whims his god; He almighty said:  “Have you seen he who has taken as his god his [own] desire, and Allah  has sent him astray due to knowledge and has set a seal upon his hearing  and his heart and put over his vision a veil? So who will guide him  after Allah? Then will you not be reminded?” [Al-Jathiya 45:23]

 O my God, return those who got strayed from the  right path to it again, and protect us all, by your mercy, from the  torment of the hellfire. O Allah, endear the Faith to us and beautify it  in our hearts, make disbelief, wickedness and disobedience hateful to  us, and make us among the rightly guided. Amen.
 
 Dear brother, having drugs is a crime involving moral turpitude and leads to prison.
