There are many reasons for drug prohibition of the drugs in Islam. In this article some of them will be mentioned very briefly. Firstly, it is clear for everyone that the drugs are harmful for the body, and whatever is harmful to the body is forbidden, as the holy Qur'an said: "Do not throw [yourselves] with your [own] hands into destruction."[3] The drug is harmful to the body, so it is forbidden. Secondly, Imam Reza (AS) said: Everything ranging from food and clothing and something else in which corruption is forbidden. [4] The drug, which is harmful for body, contains corruption, so it is forbidden in Islam.
