    what i understand from the article plus i heard the same from a fellow God alone follower that it is okay to drink alcohol as long as you don't get inoxicated. i guess it's because in small dosages it's not bad for you.

        I suggest using the search function.

        It will find threads such as this
        http//free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=10889.45

        On it, see some of the posts by bro Arnold Yasin.

        All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

          AOA guys

          OK this question has probably been asked a million times but does the article on alcohol on the freeminds website say that it's fine to drink alcohol ?

          You're right, and you've asked the same question before... atleast a couple of times from that million. Twice on the same thread.

            OK this question has probably been asked a million times but does the article on alcohol on the freeminds website say that it's fine to drink alcohol ? The article is quite convincing though!

            Hello

            Actually i was thinking that the article is right based on the fact that we can't claim somthing is haram unless Allah claimed as such

            in the case of Khamr, yes it has to be Haram because

            if A is called Haram

            and B is described as being part of A

            then B is haram

            in the Quran we read that all Ithim are haram and we read that Khamr is described as Ithim hence it has to be haram and the article on FM has to be wrong

            Salam

              Drinking alcohol can not be haram for several reasons.
              If something is haram than Quran tells us the possible punishment. Punishment can be earthly or divinely. Quran talks of both.

              Haram is killing of a human. Possible punishment - Money....

              There is no discrepancy in the Quran.

              We are told to avoid contatc prayers when drunk... if alcohol is forbiden why bring it up at all in this aya???

              Little vitamine C is good for humans. Little alcohol is good for humans.
              Too much Vitmine C can be damaging for humans, to much alcohol can be damaging for humans.

              But we dont make Vitamine C haram do we?

                Peace

                Again it all depends how you want to take the word "avoid it" ... and why vitamin C was not mentioned in the quran but alcohol was ... what are the differences in the two, not only the similarities.

                  Peace,

                  I'll not go into the discussion anymore as I have answered ammar enough already, and I believe AB again makes a real good point. But Dion, i wanted to ask you. I have studied Biochemistry, but 'little bit of alchol is good' theory never came across my table.

                    I've found it helps me with my cuts and allows me to relax.

                    I do not think khamar/intoxicant is strictly limited to alcohol.

                      Hello all,

                      Alcohol consumption CAN be devastating if used promiscously but no doubt has its benefits to certain extent.

                            Hello mate

                            it was a comment by sister Myr on FI web site and I say that it is irrefutable so I'm not going to waste my time debating it here with those who say it is allowed in lil amounts

                            Salam Ahmed, all,

                            I tend to disagree with you on some of your statements but for now I would like to tackle item # 7 and your claim about alcohol/fermentated drinks (khamr) in the light of the Quran. This is the research that I did and shared on Free-minds a while ago, about the khamr in Quran and why I believe it is really "forbidden"-). This is what I wrote (in green)

                            ....Let me explain why I believe the khamr is not allowed or is "haram"

                            I am sure you would agree with me if I say if A is equal to B and B is equal to C, A would be equal to C , wouldn't you?

                            Now in Quran, we are told in verse 733 that "hurima" (made haram) any "ithm". And in verse 2219 , we are told there is "ithm kabeer" (BIG ithm) in khamr. So what would be the logical conclusion? Please note that I did not translate any words but kept them in Arabic to avoid shifting the subject through all kinds of elaboration and philosophy around the translations we tend to see on this forum.

                            Peace. Myr.

                            and i conceded to her without arguning at all, i was some how blinded not to see 2219

                              yes...that's a strong argument against consumption of alcohol! -)

                              what i would like to add is that the fact that there is in it "ithmun kabeerun" is in itself enough of a deterrent...who would want to be counted among indulgers in "ithmun kabeerun"!

                              ...and also...in it is "manafiAAu lilnnasi", and not "khayr"! -)

                                  Wow I never thought of it that way either. Thanks Bro AB for posting Sis Myr's explanation. It sheds a new clarity on the subject.

                                  God Bless you both

                                    In 2219, intoxication/alcohol is NOT a prohibition since it clearly mentions the benefit/advantage. If anything has some good usage, it cannot be prohibited but rather restrictive or conditional. This is plain common sense. 733 has nothing to do with alcoholism.

                                        second in it is also "manafioo linnasay" (benefit for people)...an indulger in alcohol would be an indulger in "manaf" (benefit/good/use/advantage). You are attempting to stress upon one half of the verse while neglecting the other.

                                        how is alcohol beneficial? -)

                                        medicinal (pharmaceutical, coronary/urinary, surgery), food/confectionaries (taste), stress/pain/mood (cuts, bruises, body/facial clensing, relaxation), etc. and I'm sure there are many. Alcohol doesn't mean to consume just hard liquor all day long and drop dead, and certainly doesn't mean to become habitual, hence restrictive and conditional.
