Since I have never read more than a few words of the Qu'ran, can you post some of the verses demanding that alocohol not be consumed?
This was one of several reasons I did not pursue Islam....I did go through Ramadan years ago and celebrated the end by getting drunk....one Moslem never looked at me the same way again. That was when I decided Islam was not the way for me.
So it begs the question. Can one be Moslem and still drink?
I don't have particular verses for you but all I know from when I was a muslim is that they believe its a serious "sin" so they would probably say your are not "true believer" for drinking. Lol its kinda funny how Allah forbids muslims to drink and then promises to reward them with the sweetest wine in heaven...how are people supposed to know the wine in heaven is amazing if they don't have anything to compare it to?
