I thought it was forbidden in Islam. I followed Khamanei/Khomeini, and they said it was forbidden because it use to used primarily for gambling. In a society where it isn't used primarily for that, it would not be forbidden. I agreed, and thought it was illogical for God to forbid for the sake of the game itself. But everyone else said it was forbidden no matter what. At least I thought it was that way.
