Is Alcohol forbidden in Islam?

Islam has the complete code of life and it has the guidance for all. Islam takes the huge care of his followers. And many people converted to Islam due to its moral values, its system and its way of description. In the time of Dark Age, the people used to drink the alcohol and there was every type of Sin in the society. If the Islam straightway would give them the order of the forbidden of the many of things which were the part of their daily day routine and their habits. No doubt the alcohol is forbidden in the Islam. But it was not forbidden before. Time to time it was forbidden there was a reason behind it. If the Allah and the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) would straightway forbid the consummation of Alcohol then people may not pay heed to them and may not embrace the Islam. As the Arab used to drink the Alcohol in excess so first of all the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) and Allah Almighty make people know about the fines and Alcohol which are present in the heavens and forbid them not to drink them here so that they may enjoy the Alcohol of the Heavens. It was reported that ones the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) said as follow, “Allah dislike the one who drinks Alcohol and does gambling.” By the above hadiths, we can see that the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) just said that Allah dislike the one who does so but there is no such an order which tell us that it has been forbidden but as the time pass he strictly banned it. It has been reported by Abu Dawood that ones the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) said as follow, “Allah has cursed Alcohol, the who pour it the one who drinks it, the one who buys it the one who sells it, for whom it is squeezed the one who squeezes it, the one who carries it and the one to whom it is carried.” After this Hadith, it has been reported that the companion of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) was about to drink the glass of Alcohol was in their hands but as they got the news they threw it. In such a way it was banned time to time and then strictly banned. rnOnes it was reported that, ”the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) during the journey of Meraj was present a bowl of Milk and a wine but he chooses the bowl of Milk and drinks it. Afterwards, Allah said, “As you choose the bowl of milk so now the wine is strictly banned to your Ummah.” In this way, it was banned to mankind and was forbidden in Islam. If you all have drunk it in your life then you must ask for the forgiveness from Allah Almighty. And there is no better place to ask for forgiveness from Allah Almighty other than in his own home. If you will be the guest of Allah he fulfills your every wish. As now coming to Umrah is much cheaper because now Umrah visa online cost is much cheaper.
