Definition: Gambling is the wagering of money or something of material value (referred to as "the stakes" on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary intent of winning additional money and/or material goods. Here comes the question, what is the religious view about gambling. Note: All answers must come with quotes from either the bible or quran but if the bible or quran is silent about it you can give your honest opinion

derolemode: "They ask you (o Muhammad) about intoxicants and gambling. Say; in them is great sin... and some profit for men, but the sin is greater." Surat al Baqrah (2:219) "Oh you who believe, verily, intoxicants and gambling, dedication of stones and divination are an abomination; of Satan's handwork. Avoid such abominations therefore, that you may prosper. Verily, Satan's plan is to excite enmity and hatred between you with intoxicants and gambling; and hinder you from the remembrance of God and from prayer. Will you then not abstain?" Qur'an: Surat al Ma'idah (5:90-91). No need for my personal opinion. |
