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.

Also Shaikh Ahmad An-Najmi (shafaahullah) has written a poem that discibes the harm of that leaf (qat, chat, kat....)

Shaikh Ibn Othaimeen also has a fatwa about it although he doesnt clearly make rullings about it:
