Tariq ibn Suwayd ...




I used to suffer from an illness 
And took alcohol as a remedy ... 

When alcohol was banned 
I asked God's Messenger whether I could continue using this remedy ... 

He told me: 

No, for it is not a remedy ... Rather, it is the disease itself ... 

Scientists now agree that even a single drop of alcohol is harmful to one's physical and spiritual health ...
