You don't have to drink in a bar/club. I can't think of anywhere that doesn't let non-drinkers in. But if you want to drink, go for it.

You got more social opportunities and a variety of places to go. What can muslims do? Nothing exiting.


You thinking drinking alcohol gives you more social opportunities?...
but, how about going to the places where people drink alcohol..like bars etc..and NOT drinking alcohol?....then, wouldnt that give you, potentially, the same social opportunities?

Well, if you want all the excitement in this life, you may have to suffer afterwards. Given a thought on that?

You're a grown-up, presumably, if you want to make your own life choices, get the information, know the consequences and make the decision.

If you're looking to TSR to help with this process you're probably not ready.

God is omnipotent (not sure if thats the right spelling). Oh and Christian god = Jewish God = Muslims God

Well nobody is forcing you to be a muslim. You made the choice, it sounds like your finding it a bit of a chore.

How dare you insult Islam! And as for you, why call yourself muslim if you are going to sin. What benefit will alcohol give you? Did anyone mention that its a DEPRESSANT? What about the fact that its a POISON? What about the fact that its a WASTE OF MONEY? Give me a break. Alcohol is a disease. A disease that is damaging society and a disease that will damage you. If you are going to turn to it, do me a favour and don't call yourself a muslim. If anything, your just a stupid-so and so trying to give muslims a bad name.

Quick! Burn his embassy!
Honestly, not drinking's probably an advantage in the end. I'm a Muslim and don't drink at parties, etc, and seem to have just as good a time as those that get wasted. And there's no nasty hangover. Yaldi.
There is plenty of ways to have fun without drinking. Alcohol is just costly and not essential at all. If you have good friends then you will enjoy time with them anywhere, anyhow.

but ja, I agree with the guy who said that if you are seeking advice on here about drinking you are probably not ready so think about it deeply and see if it is worth turning your back on your religion for.
hello mr muslim .... in our society many people dont drink also but then for a different reason : they just dont like it ha ha

if i may advice u a cool beer : a belgium one named " peckeresse lindemans " its the champagne amongst the belgium beers ..... its prob difficult to get in great britain .... u i think must go to a shop thats specialised in forign beers ...

Your a disease.

Who gave you the right to say any of that to him? If he wants to drink, he can drink. He is his own person and shouldn't have to listen to ***** like you.


Mate, If you wanna drink. Drink. **** what everyone else says!
You might as well just try it once, i know plenty of muslims who have done this just out of curiousity and really enjoyed it. If you dont like how it makes you feel, then dont do it again - simples. :smile:

That was harsh

Anyway, OP. Sounds to me like your not exactly feeling to comfy with your religion. Did you choose it yourself, or have your family not given you a choice in the matter?

And alcohol does not give you more social opportunities. And it is a poison and depressant. If you want to drink it, by all means go ahead, but your not really going to gain more social opportunities by it, and people can#'t deny that it potentially has harmful effects. Why not just go out to bars/clubs/pubs with your friends, but don't drink. I do that, and if anything, I have more of a laugh watching my friends act drunkenly. It also means that we've always got a sober driver, which i don't mind doing, better than getting the bus/train, and there's always someone who's able to keep an eye out for anything bad happening, which has proved useful once or twice. On the plus side, without having to try to convince them, i've influenced a couple of my friends into hardly drinking at all.

You need to make your mind up about your religion, not alcohol, that's the bigger issue here

You should be ashamed of yourself. And you call yourself muslim to, im sorry but muslims and alcohol dont go well together and if you dont like it then your free to become an atheist as Islam is seeming as if its just a routine and not a religion for you.

lol, your the one giving muslims a bad name by posting this!!

And seriously, i dont think you can accurately comment on the effects of alcohol as a depressant and 'poison' if you have never expereinced the effects of it for yourself.

(OK maybe its a waste of money lol)

I thought your lot didn't like that sort of thing?

(p.s. isn't calling yourself Mr Dangerous implying some sort of violence - did Allah say that was alright? :colone: )
