Abdelux223:How does losing money in betting becomes a sin? What would you say of a business man who bought about a hundred bags of ginger last year at the rate of 20k each and later sold each as low as 9k? Did he sin by predicting high price of ginger? 7 Likes |

Sport betting is nothing but a sin because it is a pure gambling which Allaah warned us in the glorious Quran not to partake in any form of gambling. ALLAAH says in (Q5:90), O You have believed, indeed, intoxicants, gambling, [sacrificing on] stone alters [to other than ALLAAH], and divining arrows are but defilement from work of Satan (�), so avoid it that you may be successful and prosper. Now, according to the Quran verse quoted above, a sincere believer that wants to be successful and prosper will stand by words of ALLAAH the Creator of Universe and its entire contents and turn away from work of Satan. 1 Like |

Most people kick against gambling based on moral sentiments and not religious. However because our society has found it difficult atimes to seperate morals from religion we tend to see some moral ideology from religious point of view..... The truth is if you win 10m from bet9ja today and carry tithe of 1m go church you're likely to be given a religious title sef 7 Likes 1 Share |

You cannot understand this thing by the sense. Everything has been rationalise on so it has been more or less covered from preying spiritual eyes. Plus many of us are now partakers or "cariers" so we have a subconscious obligation to defend. We all posses a sense of righteousness as to why we do what we do. It's what maybe gives us that strong sense of justification to carry on. But if we are to be spiritual, we must first be natural, starting with what we see. ( the invisible things from creation were made know by the visible things ) So what can you see?. Your scores sites. Many of you have been looking at your score sites but I bet not many of you have ever notice that " gambling responsibility pages. Yes! Gambling responsible is a first step in trying to reduce our speed in this area. It ensure all the tips in ensure that we employ little reason when you engage in gambling. Look it up yourself. But best way to win with gambling is to stop gamblng. Nothing wrong with it. Just a little bet with little money you can spare won't wrench the heart and won't give you sleepless night. But the problem is its a adictive nature. The more you participate the more get addicted. This is were sin lye. Sin is anything that cause your heart to be stress, you may find yourself caring more for it than for important things around you. Even your love ones. It can lead you to stealing and you may lack forcuse. Finding it hard to commute money to other important things. Like any addiction, you must satisfy it, before you can concentrate on anything else. So please let's not be fooled gambling games is a sin, it drags our mind from God, anything that drags your spirit from God is not from God It cause us to suspend important things around us. It does not agrees with nature. Nature does not support instant success. Everything in nature starts from small and grow to big. If you are trying to make success instantly, you are not borrowing from nature. Plus it's a big sign of impatience. That is consistent with this generation. . 4 Likes |

Wordson:Yes, why I feel uneasy is because most at times when a better says "let's pray for Chelsea to win" some people would say you are bringing God into betting? Don't you know it's a sin? If really it's a sin, I am ever ready to let it go. |

Re: Is Sport Betting Truly A Sin? by Adele2018: 10:19am On Dec 30, 2018 |
It might not be spelt out in your book (bible),but it is spelt out multiple times in the glorious Quran. Betting,interest-based loan,gambling,drinking alcohol, etc are major sins in islam. In the Quran, Allah says, "O ye who believe! Intoxicants and gambling,sacrificing to stones, and (divination by) arrows,are an abomination, of satan's handiwork:eschew such (abomination) that ye may prosper. Satan's plan is (but) to excite enmity and hatred between you,with intoxicants and gambling,and hinder you from the remembrance of Allah,and from prayer:will ye not abstain?" Quran chapter 5 verses 90-91. 2 Likes |

Gratefulheart01:Oga Gretefulheart01, even life naa bet. Everything that concerns ones life is a risk/bets. Having a wife/husband is a bet. Having kid/children is a bet. Having a business, especially a self employed one, is a bet. On health issues, they are all risk. So, sir sport betting shouldn't be something we should centralise all our efforts on, because we ain't even close to betting like the whites. 1 Like |

What is in the mind of a gambler? Trying to reap where he or she never sows with little to nothing, covetousness, greed, selfishness, gambling can not be equate to business, gambling is not just a sin but an evil spirit. |

The questions we should be asking should include; is yahoo yahoo a sin? is slaying a sin?, aristo/ olosho things nko? Sports betting is legal in this country while prostitution is not. Let's face it, you meet the average nigerian girl , you spend and spend on her yet you get no returns and she does not even appreciate you but flirts and searches for 'better catch', but you can bet today on man utd and Southampton matches over 1.5 knowing fully well that if it ends like that you will win have something in your pocket. In developed countries people stake bets too but it must be done responsibly. I prefer to bet than spend money on hos or on beer drinking myself slowly to death. Now tell me which one do you prefer? |
