Al-Hamdulillahi Ta'Ala wa salatu wa salamu 'ala Rasulullah wa 'ala Alihi wa Sahbihi wa salam: Salamu alaikum wa rahmatullah; Has anyone seen an official fatwa on this leaf or root [i.e. khat/qat - qat & ghat Yemen, chat in Ethiopia, jaad in Somalia and miraa in Kenya & Tanzania] that is chewed in places like Somalia, Yemen & other places because it is being heavily imported and distributed in America now and I haven't been able to find a statement from our Salafi scholars? Additionally, it causes a mild euphoria, excitement and stimulation, it is used socially in areas and is considered a "recreational drug". In the Encyclopedia of Yemen [2nd Edition] it is reportedly used by some 80% in Yemen, mostly male population and it used for reducing physical fatigue, by drivers and students for improving attention. Allahu Alam. Abu Nurani Shamsuddin
