Prohibition doesn’t work under Western belief systems. It worked in the past and still works to a great degree under Islam. I’m writing this from the arguably most heavily and forcefully secularized Muslim country, Turkey. It’s free to drink here. Yet I never witnessed consumption of alcohol IRL, only saw bottles in roadsides in poor neighboorhods and no relative of mine ever drink alcohol AFAIK.
Drugs? They’re widely despised of and I don’t think I have ever _seen_ a person who did drugs in my entire life. I’m middle class btw. Note that less religious cities have higher numbers of alcohol and drug consumption, like Izmir or Mersin.
It’s honestly sad to see entire societies of 330M people devastated by such simple substances and unable to defeat them. Alhamdulillah for Islam.
