i suppose to much of anything is bad for but chad is a national tradition, just like beer is for the western world chad is something u enjoy in the presences of ur family every once a while( specail occasion) nt something u do everyday. so i do agree and i dnt.....
khat aint that bad .wen u chew it u r like counting the stars n ur eyes is so big that every ones knue that u hav taken som drugs .but the thing I hate khat with is at night u cant sleep n wen the sun rise up u cant get up n do ur dailylife
chat chewers are just drug addicts and they look fuckin crazy .Iseen beautiful women chew khat and 2 years later they look old and tired I seen men start this shit and become paranoid.Khat is a fucked up drug and every drug addict thinks he normal and every khat chewers think its not that bad
Anyone who chews that crap is a loser, you can see the effects in their brown teeth. I feel sorry for their wives who have to put up w/ this disgusting behaviour, haram!
@De4sher. Maybe you should actually do some research on Islam before you comment about it. Don't just believe what people or the media tell you, learn about it, then maybe you will see differently..
aint nothing wrong with khat, veve, miraa, hando etc...its a natural herb and its mild...gives yu euphoria (refered to as "steam") and encourages socializing...pple dun it for 100s of years...however...our american compadres have termed it as a class A drug...what a bunch of crap...they have no idea...peace and good steams!!!!!!!!!!!
the video is 100% true. I started chewing again recently and evryone says how thin i have become also it saps your enerIgy in the long run and can lead to tense nervous headaches. It has a lot of appeal in UK amongst ravers now Im surprised
The problem with somali chicks is once they start kicking with the ajinebi 4 some reason they talk bad about us.u remind of swahili saying goes like this"a baboon laughs at a fellow baboons aas coz it's red and ugly but can not c it's own"my point take a good look in the mirror Socoro u were probaly conceived on markhan.
what u ppl talking about?Khat is good 4 my marriage without it i would probbly b single by now.VIVA khat i say.Octobox thanx bro Nakhwa till the whell fall off.Last but not least my family we dont take handout from the gov,i work hard 4 mine
it is a dirty ancient east african drug, and was not known in yemen until relatively recently by contrast. when it came to yemen, it killed the coffee plantations and ruined the society. now we have dope head narcotics in yemen forming most of the population, it is a cause of poverty. nowhere where qat is found has it coincided with prosperity. in ethiopia, eritrea, somalia, yemen, these are some of the most buggered up countries in the world. with massive wars, corruption, poverty, famines.
"the kidding" should of tempered your need for emotional "!!!!" exlamations.
Somalia is NOT falling apart because people use Khat -- It's falling apart because there are at least three foreign gov'ts keeping war alive. Also, Somalia (less the war ravaged regions) is the "freest" country in Africa.
Somalia will never be "ruled" again. As soon as America, Ethiopia, Russia, and Saudi Arabia stop meddling there the better.
@OctoBox ...I wasnt refering to somali's in somalia who chew khat, but to somali's in europe and united states who wast there time chewing khat while poor somali's in somalia are without food.
Blame "welfarism" -- if you give people welfare and refuge they get bored when they do not have to innovate their own survival and self-defense.
You don't "feed" a lion you let him hunt -- Reservationism and Welfarism are Social-Opiates.
That being said -- Somali's do pretty well in the states -- they are highly entrepreneurial; we have quite a few Somali here in the Bay Area and I doubt they chew much Khat.
@OctoBox Wow as we target this type of drug we neglect the fact that cigarettes are still legal and have 1000's of cancerous chemicals that causes death everyday. Yet they are still legal all over the world. Never have I heard or witnessed a report of death due to "Qat". As we choose to ignore other drugs that are much harmful and hazardous (that are allowed to be legal). We choose to exploit a drug with the same effects as "caffeine"?!?
Somalia should stop blaming others for its misery. It has excellent strategic location and very energetic people. Instead of utilizing these resources to promote development, earlier Somali leaders prefered to pursue the dream of "Great Somalia" starting war with their neighbours. Now Somalia harbours terrorists and pirates, and not even Somalis themselves dare or desire to "rule" it.
@ggirum -- There are "somalis" but there is no "somalia" -- the common unity there is "indvidualism and loyalty to clan." Somalia has foreign occupiers within her borders. Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, American (at least financially), Russia. the Kenyan TFG etc are all vying to rule the freest Africans on the continent (no wonder here).
Let's not forget the world banking clan that banks Saudia Arabia (and those evil wahaabi bastards) too; they want one world currency and one world religion.
wat is the difference in between khat chewing and weed smoking (both in relatively moderation)...or is there even a distinction other than the method in which one consumes?
khat doesn't mess up your teeth and there hasn't been one death in the world related to khat. Do some research before you start talking jibberish about khat
Yemsom......abaayo well said..You have told the truth that as they would, the fools, everybody using them. thats make our somali's holds khat financially, spiritualy,and emotionaly hostage
Abaayo, is a Somali poet about KAT and tells the behavior of the KAT eaters. is hard for my to translate though, it my loose its meaningful. hope socoro25 or any1 else can translate.
@YemSom click click pop pop click pop click pop pop click click click pop pop.dont you simolians talk with a series of clicks and pops rather then words?

The name is Qat, sometimes known as Khat.
Qat (or Khat) is a stimulant drug chewed in parts of East Africa.
It is highly addictive and can inhibit impulse control - many African militia members chew qat before their more notorious rampages.
It has also been known to lead to mental problems, including schizophrenia, paranoia and severe personality disorders.

every religion is potentially dangerous, islam is currently the most so.
every religion has its bad apples, but islam has by far the biggest number of those bad apples.
i don't care about explanations, i want things solved.

qat is no more dangerous then a cup of coffee.
i can list lots of legal drugs/stimulants that are worse than it.
its considered dangerous because its from africa just as weed was criminalized because of americans fear for the mexicans.

Of course nothing can actually "harm" the Soul, it is perfect and un-scathed by emotion, wind, heat, cold, or anythiing else that is physical.
Bad for the body -- sure; if one over does it.
We wouldn't be talking about this at all if 99% of Khat users used it only 3 times per week and only 1hr each time.
