  • @SALAFIMEDIAUK To be clear so you don't get the wrong idea brother I follow the way of thinking that you do as far as aqeeda goes, i believe in picking the best from the 4 madhabs etc I follow shayuk like ibn uthymeen and all that would make others think I am a salafi, but because of the kawarij in this group I don't see ibn uthymeens salafi vs way of salaf, what wrong with ahl al sunnah wa al jammat?

  • I really want to try some of this shit...

  • By making these sort of things illegal they are making matters worse by allowing criminal gangs to get involved.

  • @fatsplasher Its also discriminating against different cultures.

  • hey people whats up man, those who live in the UK in Manchester how can i get hold of this Khat stuff or Mira as some people like to call it????

  • Legalize nature!

  • damn they just think about littel KHAT is just herbal..why they dont worry about DRUGS?

  • @murwo78 KHAT is a drug!! what u mean herbal??? marijuana is herbal and opium is herbal.. man even cocaine is derived from coca leaf !!... get yo facts right!

  • what you know about KHAT? tell me have you ever chew? i did..you chew khat and you feel kind of hyper! but in Marijuana.you smoke it and you feel like your the queen of the world ! and cocaine you feel like your hollywood celeb!

  • @Rayyan36 dont talk about it KHAT unless you chew !! when you chew talk to me..please stop.talking about khat is drugs..drugs you smoke marijuan and you feel something else...or whatever..but khat is like you drinking REDBULL!

  • @murwo78 watch?v=2v_qeMxc_vY

  • @lilblitz  well i dont understand it this lingoo !! but khat is just herbal,it relieves alot of poeple.like "REFUGEE" POEPLE LIKE SOMALI..we left our homes we came different countrys..we are strugline.with westren country so khat relieves..us.

  • @murwo78 So its self medication? The same way meth is to a meth user

    and alcohol to an alcoholic?

  • @equal2orgreater indeed ! well khat..is just kind of leaf of course..when you chew you will like it..You dreaming that your something else..well we are not dronk ! or high.well when I chew. I feel Like Hollywood actress.,walking in RED CARPET!. well my mood is nice...i forget everything.being broke,jobless,homeless.eveyrhi­ng.thinking back in home.it relieves us like REGUGEE POEPLE..when you become refugee you will know about khat.

  • @murwo78 I've tried my share drugs sxb by the way am I Somali so i know what it

    feels to be a refuge, further more it is a temporary fix to a permanent issue.

    And all mood altering substances do relieve the anxiety and stress of daily

    life but once the high is gone it compounds the problems!

  • CIA is the biggest drug organization in the US.

  • Highly addictive... It's less addictive than tobacco and alcool! Just take a look on wikipedia

  • amirica fuck no!!!

  • I encourage eating khat

  • seriously Khat is just good for Somalia people even white people like khat so i aint know why government say u should not able to get khat

  • يا حبيبي الشعب اليمني عنده ملايين بس عاد المسئولين هم السرق

  • Wow, white people and thier shame take over of America has noting to do but look for Khat. lol... Shit is so funny, why don't those crakkkers go take care of the cocaine problem that most whites and not Africans are causing. Peace to Africa and death to all whites.

  • You worried about the smuggling of Khat by organized crime? Who creates the demand for it by making it illegal? Who is making it "profitable" for those drug dealers to engage in criminal behaviour in order to sell it? That cop at 1:05 is such a dope.

  • Thing is some drugs are illegal for a reason. To higher the price and make war on the people.. People should wake up to that .. The drugwars makes NO SENCE since alcohol is ONE of themdeadliest drugs in the world but its legal. ALSO Cia have been exposed serveral times smugglin drugs into the US. SO no drugs is not legal for your best is illegal to create a shadow buisness and create a war on the people.

    U know that theres more people dying from the drugwar then just the drugs?

    getyourmindrigh

  • wow I cant believe that khat is seen as dangerous that is dumb of the Americans to say that khat is bad.

  • wtf fuck usa the khat does not kill people

  • The government is fucking stupid. The only reason cartels are armed and violent is because their product is "illegal" doesn't the government see the method to stop this. Legalization

  • there is no street gang violence surrounding this the us just hates to see brown people in control of a product which is lucrative

  • i'm from holland, and yesterday at the train station some african guys were publically selling it and taking it.. no stress right

  • Look people are using a leaf, that when chewed, is essentially the same as extracting the alkaloids into your system like when you sip your morning coffee. There is no evidence to suggest long term use of this does any harm at all. What fucking moron asshole thought it was a good idea to wage a war on some petty little fucking leaf that people want to chew while going on with their day. Again think coffee. When will we stop burning witches? You fucking humans disgust me.

  • @CantWeedThis WELL ACTUALLY I HAVE TRIED GAT WHEN I WAS IN ISRAEL,IT JUST A NATURAL SPEED AND IT WILL MAKE U MAKE LOVE ALL NIGHT 2 UR WOMEN IT IS NATURAL LIQUORS ARE WORST THAT GAT!

  • I don't blame the police but the so called "War on Drug" which also keeps the most harmful drug, Alchol legal.

  • cigarettes are highly addictive, causes all types of cancer and it kills many. It says it on the pack. You don't see cigarettes being pulled. I hate this Government. If they cant make money off of it its going down.

  • Khat is not addictive at all... everytime i go to Yemen. I chew it almost everyday. It relaxes you and keeps you feeling nice and calm. But when i come to the states, its not like i feel like shit because i dont have it. Its a normal day in my life. See, if i had khat here, i would do my job a lot better cuz i would never get mad at anyone. I think it should be legal everywhere. Actually, i think that policy makers should chew khat before they get into meeting,

  • WILL YOU CAN SAY THAT THIS DRUG IS VERY BAD FOR PLP AND FOR THE HEALTH

  • STUPED

  • actually khat makes brain damage over time, not like weed which is almost harmless unless the user have schizophrenia symptoms, which can get worse.

  • its also legal in the netherlands

  • i love this shit

  • ethiopia and kenya are artificial countries, neither of them belongs to ancient egypt. but Somalis were the fathers of the ancient egyptians, and pharaoh himself was a somali. ethiopians came from yemen and they are arabs, kenya is a collection of negroids from mozambique and central africa, and the land mass currently named to be ethiopia and kenya is indeed a SOMALI LAND, it belongs to Somalis (Punt), the capital of land of gods. pharaoh himself came from land of gods and he declared to be god

  • @MrTrixter311 id rather they get executed, more space in prison

  • legal in UK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • If you tell a lie many times, it means not - the truth !

  • watch khat controversy

    you will understand what is khat in uk

  • Khat is such a harmless drug. It is the safest recreational drug out there.

  • khat is not addicting its harmless, I used to chew it in Israel

  • It is the healthiest recreational drug, much less addictive and less dangerous to the body than tobacco or alcohol.

  • Let's just make something clear here, the peer-reviewed medical journal "the Lancet" rated Khat as less dangerous than marijuana and juust above the danger of coffee. The biggest problems with Khat is that long-term (months on end) users tend to have some sleeping problems. That's pretty much it.

    How the fuck can you justify making this illegal? 2 cans of red bull makes you more jittery than this. Seriously, what the fuck are we doing?

  • why people are talking about how horrrrrrrible drugs are in the news?? alcohol is way worse than khat but you hear much less about it in the news..

  • @Makkealamarkus Um, I'm pretty sure the news focuses more on alchohol, This is the only time I've ever seen khat in the news, but I've seen alchohol in the news alot

  • khat is illegal in u.s...!

  • I'm from Yemen and I do eat khat in most of the time but some people think that qat narcotic substance which is not Kmalk make you more active, but if you drank five cups of coffee on an empty stomach (when you wake up from sleep) and thank you

  • okay this is bullshit. my mother and father also got caught shipping it into the us. and they got in trouble it's a tradition, khat doesn't get you high and become you do stupid shit. it's like coffee. no one got murdered over this, that's bullshit. and no gangs are trying to get there hands on this just more bullshit

  • @souldropper11 my mother and father also got>> caught<<< shipping ..If the got Caught Thats means they knew there was a law against it and took a chance and lost ..its not like a life saving plant that people can't do without so your mother and father were in it for the money..Tradition ends in that country Just like Chirstmas ends in the workplace because it might "offend" someone by saying merry chirstmas no one got murdered over this no gangs its a tradition

  • I chew khat whenever i want and stop doin it anytime i want without any difficulities just hop you doin more researches about it

  • THEY DONT DO IT FINE

    BUT THEY CANT MAKE US NOT DO IT

    FAGGOTS

  • "Highly additive"

    "Less addictive than marijuana, which is much less addictive than drinking, smoking, or most other drugs"

  • the truth is :

    if you chew KHAT = high as hell(but not like WEED,much better), your brain work really better, you become the man of every situations(you can resolve every probleme), you think that you better than everyone , you trust yourself 100%.when you finished it you dick also become high as hell and you really need to fuck.You are never drunk or stuff like that and not even addictive(cause i ate during 5 years,an i stopped since 7 years

  • @MrTrixter311 pot isn't hard to get at all. it would actually be worse if it became legal since there would be heavy taxes

  • Qat is not highly addictive, fuck all you idiots. I am Yemenite and I used to do Qat everyday, but I swear I can stop it anytime. But its culture now.

  • How about we eliminate violent crime and excecute violent criminals. EVC?EVC! Why are the good people strapped with the burdon of supporting violent criminals in a costly 'correctional facility' ? You are not going to correct anything! It takes money from good people and waste it on bad people. Meantime, what happens to children who don't have enough to eat in America. Excecuting 1million violent criminals in jails today would literally mean BILLIONS of dollars available for children!!!

  • ويش جاء بامه امريكا يا بريري ابو يمن هههههههههههههههه

  • this is bullshit, its a leafy plant, just like weed, how the hell is alcohol not illegal in this country and weed and qat is?

  • Dumbasses, the reason violence is associated with it is because you made it illegal...

  • Of course they would say it's highly addictive. That's all they ever say about any drug.

  • FACT- Khat is NOT addictive. Excessive chewing MAY cause oral cancer, but that is it. 80% of Yemen men chew it.

    Let's compare the effects of khat and tobacco... hm....

  • khat ceesh calaa mirqaan ,but thumbs up if you think weed is better

  • the level of hypocrisy and ignorance the media and law enforcement try to put across is appaling..khat is not as addictive as tobacco or alcohol which are all too legal. Khat has the same effect as coffee does..its a stimulant and the insinuation that it has brought about violence is as ignorant as expected of Americans. Somalis and some people from East africa chew this plant culturally and socially just as in the west people drink wine or champagne and most chewers don't even drink alcohol!!

  • I'm from Saudi Arabia, and TRUST me people here need some God Made pure Cannabis!

  • fucking bollocks. yet they allow usage of tabacco and destroying many families by alcohol. burn babilon!

  • how about everyone man up and dont do drugs...? just sayin

  • @rangerrunner11 why not do drugs?

  • I love this "illegal drug". like coffee, but little stronger.. well little side stuff also ;)

  • PROPOGANDA IS OUT OF CONTROL!

  • i love how everyone is bashing america but you fuckers cant wait to get your asses here. stay home and chew your drugs. stupid pirates.

  • "We're starting to see gang violence associated with the drugs"

    YES, you stupid, stupid fucks.

    You just are incapable of learning such a simple concept that if you make something ILLEGAL, THEN YOU WILL HAVE VIOLENCE.

    Fucking retards.

  • the reason they bring this to such a hard sentencing is tax dollars...now Somoli's bring in this product tx free, sell it for total profit,tax free...now where's the us's cut nonwhere.see NOW IF WOKE THE FUCK UP AND GAVE THE US MONEY,THEY COULD SAY IT'S GOV REGULATED...BUT NO...YOU HIJACK THERE BOATS AND CAUSE SHIT...NOW YOU CANT SELL YOUR PLANTS///

  • WTF?? ... its not even a drug .... i used it and im only 12 years old!! ... it really dont do nothing >> i just chewed it while having social time with my friends! ... and how the fuck is it highly addictive!! ... i could chew it for a whole month and still go without it!!

  • Yyyyyeah, Americans are fucked in the head. They a nation of redundancy. I mean, for crying out loud - this is a social drug. I disagree with it. I am actually against it. But not on the redundant level that the American media places this plant. I think they need to calm down and scratch away their bigotry and racism.

  • its not a drug lolllllllll..

  • thats not cool we want miraa

  • khat is illegal because of cultural bias and bigotry. same thing happened with marijuana many years ago.

  • khat is legal in the uk to "trade or use"

  • america is all fucking bullshit

  • CULTURAL clash?

    haha why can't Americans use that here? Pot is a culture class...

    Problem is people come here wanting to enter into the US without abiding by the laws. But we all know what a little money does to laws. It subverts them too. Got enough money? get the laws changed.

    At any rate hallucinate all you want..

  • Damn Rag head drug addicts

  • Where can I get some??!!

  • this is legal in england

  • Fuck Druglaws!

  • how did they get qat like that? Over here in california they have that shit all dried up and it tastes like henna lol

  • @LiLAbdi97 You already know they trying to kill us.

  • Fuck them pigs bitch we don't fuck with the police over this way i had to cut my old man loose for being a fucking pig long live Africa!

  • Cock is more adiictive than Khat :p

  • Wow nice

  • Wow nice

  • well they can go back to somilia THIS IS AMERICA IF YOU DONT LIKE IT GO BACK

  • Sheriff McGowan is an idiot. His job helps to create the profit margin then he tries to use the associated violence as a justification for a drug war which only helps to facilitate it. America is addicted to creating illegal markets and irrational fear so they can wage wars that are never meant to be won.

  • @Enterascertainment very well said sir

  • There should be a RATIONAL debate and discussion about Qat. But I do feel that most of the negative aspects - like contamination and gang violence - stem from it being illegal. A blanket prohabition never works so public awareness is also needed.

  • i love khat

  • qat is the reason that Yemen will never progress. There all on drugs. They chew quat and tell their dreams and feel on top of the world, not realising that it clowdes their dreams and keeps their people living like animals. The only reason the government permits it is control. If these "men" ever wake up from their addiction, they will overturn the government. But, let them keep chewing and raping little girls in "marrage". Allah will have the last word. Inshallah.

  • Khat is highly addictive ??? Yep, he sure doesn't know what he's talking about. That is one of the great part of khat it is NOT highly addictive ! But sure, why make khat legal if only countries like Ethiopia can export it (and make money out of it...) ?

  • ive chewed khat before and its is no more a drug than a fucking cup of coffe really the buzz you get from it is like a caffeine boost on steroids thats about it you feel alert and awake and full of energy but definatly not high

  • ps.... if all drugs were to be legalized, regulated and turned in to an industry we wouldn't have to worry about violent gangs trafficing and selling them would we? look at the prohibition of alcohol.....you dont see al capone esk gangsters sawing people in half with tommy guns over boot legged booze anymore do you?

  • Comment removed

  • hahaha....when will they realize that the war on drugs is a complete failure....let them keep their khat....the US is a (stolen) country whose culture only is that of the immigrants that have come here. denying the somalis khat is like going back in time and denying the european settlers their alcohol and tobacco....we live in a melting pot, why stop adding ingredients now?

  • @ablasphemy11 wow thats a very nice way of putting it,just too bad u watch russian rap lol

  • @MboredNbad why is it too bad? I love music, I have respect for all genres...and I enjoy many of them....plus I am trying to learn russian.....it makes it a little less tedious...

  • ويش لا يعملو لا يعدو الربط خليه يجرب القات يمكن يقير

    الحشيش ويرجع يكون يخزن

  • I tried chewing cat it bit me

  • I am a somalian I hate Khat it give a vary bad name to somalian! I wish it could just disappear!

  • what is wrong of eating it in the us

  • you can eat it in uk

  • Somalis are a big load of all kind of problems in my country Sweden.

  • @MrRolandX Same here in Finland. They have unemployement rate of 79%, which is just pathetic... And even more pathetic is how our asshole government is talking all kind of bs about how multiculturialism is so great, and how we should pay refugee lives when they come here to live with our money doing nothing but crimes.

  • @MrRolandX EVEN IN SAUDIA ARABIA

  • @MrRolandX hållaer fan med dig

  • this is like watching a comedy full of mindless retards who cant't think straight and even a fully stoned motherfucker can figure out making shit like this illegal is the cause of all this

  • as an Ethiopian, where khat is widely accepted, I PREFER CANNABIS

  • well addictive my ass,alchohol is worst and,medical mariguana,in ingland gat is legal,as matter fact i heard it cures high blood pressyre and,diabetcs but,they want allow it in the u.s cause it will interfer with farmactical business!

  • ont believe that guy when he said its highly addicted, I used to chew it for more than 5 years frequently. when I moved to canada I stopped it and nothing happened to me, in short, you can quit it whenever you want. its nice though

  • @bakeel2000 Rofl, You used to chew it for more than 5 year frequently, THATS NOT ADDICTION? dumb ass... You quit because you CANT Chew khat in canada,

    Once again...

    Dumb ass!

  • Highly addictive???

    Bollocks...it's not at all

  • Another case of disinformation put forth from the DEA... It has been ranked as the LEAST addictive by researchers.

    Fuck the bullshit war on drugs.

  • Actually qat is not that much dangerous its normal its instead alcohol or others forbidden

  • dirty qat junkies

  • anyone with ADD/ADHD use's khat? it helps?

  • where we can buy this ??

  • you can buy it on e-bay for £7

  • Cannabis should be legal in the States,throughout the world for that matter.

  • Dutch smoke weed, is part of their culture

    does that mean when they come here they would be allowed?

    sireiously, these somali morons don't think

  • come on, its somalins were talking about :P

  • haha.. its legal in most places really. I'm from UK, khat's legal here. Strangely its much harder to get than weed though :s

  • We have it Israel, don't drink alcohol after Gat...

  • Highly addictive LOL

    stupid americans, you can just buy in the netherlands....

  • omg when you make drugs illigal you bring illigal selling that comes with violance. theres no war on drugs its so stupid to believe khat is dangerous.

  • punkz....khat aint a drug itz legal in uk y crnt it b in usa....dumb americanz!!!

  • I guess they are lucky they are not throwing them in jail for NOT worshiping Jesus. Ya know!

    I really hate America - Most of the time. Awk!
