Do not Give your Daughter in Marriage to a Drunkard

Do not Give your Daughter in Marriage to a Drunkard

 Hazrat Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (a.s.) quotes the Holy Prophet (S),\

“Allah has made me to pronounce wine as Harām, after this pronouncement if someone still drinks wine, he is not fit to have his proposal for marriage accepted, when he proposes. If he seeks recommendation, he should not be recommended. If he says something he must not be believed. His testimony must not be accepted. Nothing should be kept in his trust. Allah is not responsible for something kept with a drunkard, with the knowledge (of his vice). He will not receive any compensation. If the thing is lost, nothing could be taken in exchange and neither its cost.”

(al-Kāfi)

Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (a.s.) says:

“One who marries his well-behaved daughter to a drunkard does Qat’a ar-Rahm.”

(al-Kāfi)

Imam (a.s.) has also said,

“One who marries his well-behaved daughter to a drunkard; it is as if he has given her to adultery.”

(Mustadrak ul-Wasa’il)

 Imam (a.s.) has also stated in a tradition,

“If a drunkard falls ill do not go to visit him. If he dies, do not attend his funeral.”
