Question

What's the punishment in Islam for drinking?

Answer 1

My ex was Islamic. According to him, the punishment for drinking is to go to h**l. It's completely forbidden. Case closed, end of story.

Interestingly enough, though, you'll find that while the majority of Islamics interpret the Qu'ran to have said that ALL intoxicants are not allowed, others interpret it quite literally to mean that drinking anything fermented from a GRAIN is not allowed. Thus, they believe that they can drink things like vodka (potato) and rum (molasses/sugarcane). This varies from one Islamic to the next, but, like I said, the majority say no to all intoxicants.

Answer 2

Jail term, Lashes,Penalty any one of these or 2 or all.

  

Answer 3

I think it depends on how much you drink, why you did drink, and if you hurt people while you were drunk. Either way its better to be avoided and only Allah (SWT) knows whether u will even get punished for it or not!!!

Answer 4

Answer 5

Muslims have a way of fooling Allah in Indonesia. A chinese gent told me that they put beer in tea pots and drink through tea cups which is not considered Haram!

BTW, Why are Muslims rewarded by all kinds of drinks in heaven in that case?

Answer 6

There is a Law known as the Sharia Law, and under this law...or sets of Laws, drinking is punishable by flogging, stoning, even death. This of course varies from place to place. In strict Islamic regions like the Middle East and North Africa, a drunk muslim does not live to see another sunset (unless of course they belong to the Royal family). In Europe and North America, primitive corporal punishment like stoning to death is unheard of. If you are a muslim, make your decision to either drink or not depending on where you live.

Answer 10

A human enforced punishment?

Depends if the person get caught, and in what country (if a Muslim country or not)

Allah's punishment?

Judgment day punishment = h**l. But no one knows how long it lasts or anything of that sort. I think there's also a punishment while being buried.

Answer 11

I'm not Muslim but I do know the answer you are looking for.  In Saudi Arabia-jail.  In Other Arab country-you will be judge in Sharia court and be sentence by the judge there on what he see fit basing on his understanding of the Quran and other publishing.
