Can CBD Get You High?
As mentioned above, THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is the only component of cannabis that produces mind-altering effects on the body and creates that “high” feeling. This means that there is no chance that you will experience any psychotropic effects associated with CBD cannabis. This also rings true for all products containing 0% THC.
As long as CBD products have been purchased from reputable sellers who can prove the THC content, you can rest assured that there is no chance of feeling high.
Many who are concerned that CBD is halal will argue that any product containing 0.2% THC would not be halal because even any amount of THC would be wrong. If this concerns you, you may want to look for products made from CBD isolate (CBD that has been isolated) or that advertise zero THC like CBD Broadspectrum
Separating CBD from THC and other components is a tedious process that requires specialized equipment, operators and testing machines, to ensure that the procedure has been carried out correctly. This is why it is very important to source CBD from reputable companies and brands, as they have the means and equipment to isolate CBD. Many of them will also do third-party lab testing to prove CBD and THC content.
Any reputable CBD brand will have third-party lab reports to prove the content of their products. A third-party lab report is when the product has been sent to a lab that specializes in testing CBD products and is not associated with any specific brand. This way there is no bias and you can trust what is listed in the results.
Islamic Marijuana?
CBD can be considered Halal because it is similar to other plant extracts used in daily life, such as essential oils (i.e. lavender oil) or cooking oil . This means it cannot technically be categorized as haram.
However, many believe that when choosing a CBD product to use, you should ensure that it is 100% THC-free and that you are personally right to take it.
If in doubt…
A very common teaching in the Islamic faith is that when in doubt, it is better to abstain.
When it comes to CBD, it's best that you personally do extensive research for yourself and talk to your local CBD researchers.
It is very important that taking CBD is in line with your personal beliefs and that you personally feel comfortable with it. We would never want anyone to take anything that interferes with their beliefs and values, so we will not make any suggestions to that effect.
A good tip for finding CBD products without a trace of THC is to look to trusted brands or stores; either can be found online or in town.
Many of these products are made with CBD isolate or are called broad-spectrum. CBD isolate is, in a way, the CBD compound isolated from any other component of cannabis and hemp plants. While Broad Spectrum products will still contain other hemp plant compounds (i.e. terpenes and flavonoids), they will still be THC-free.
All of these products will also be advertised as THC-free. Many will even have lab reports to prove it. You will find that there are many places that sell THC-free CBD, and you can find the perfect product for you.
smoking cbd islam?
A question often asked by numbers of Muslims around the world, The Koran prohibits any substance dangerous to humans. Cannabis is considered as khamr (hallucinogenic substance) by many religious rites and therefore mainly as Haram (prohibited)
In orthodox Islam, conservatives believe that cannabis is a hallucinogenic substance and therefore, according to some Hadiths, it is prohibited.
Is smoking CBD haram?
If we refer to the various writings, cannabis is haram, however CBD is a molecule without psychotropic effect, therefore not hallucinogenic, it does not fit into the framework of the Koran. However, smoking CBD flowers remains haram because traces of THC are present in cannabis flowers.
Are some methods of consuming CBD haram?
The first thing we recommend to anyone looking for Halal CBD is to only buy lab-tested CBD. This way you can see on the report exactly what the product contains. It will indicate if there are traces of THC as well as solvents.
Additional concern has been raised regarding the many methods of consuming CBD such as oils, gummies, edibles, vaping pills and more.
Let's look at them one by one and see what are the Halal CBD consumption methods:
Halal CBD Oils
For the majority of CBD oils, you can be sure that they are halal. The main ingredients being a hemp extract containing CBD (which is halal), and a carrier oil. This is what we recommend you buy if you want to be sure that you are consuming a Halal product.
However, as with alcohol-based medications, if there is an alternative without a trace of alcohol, it should be taken. This means that Muslims looking to use CBD should use manufactured CBD oils listed with Zero THC, and contain zero traces of alcohol.
These are all THC-free as they are made from CBD isolate and are also vegan. This way you can be sure they are Halal!
CBD Edibles
Some CBD edibles are Haram due to the gelatin used. Therefore, we recommend that you stay away from CBD gummies unless you can be sure they are gelatin-free. For example, if they are listed as vegan/vegetarian. However, there are still many vegan CBD edibles that would be considered halal, such as CBD chocolates.
CBD tablets or capsules
Again, with CBD capsules, gelatin is the main concern, so we recommend buying vegan/vegetarian CBD tablets to be sure they are halal and gelatin-free.
CBD e liquid
Vaping CBD is complicated because e-cigarettes are generally considered Haram due to the nicotine they contain, making them banned. However, the vast majority of CBD vapes and e-liquids do not contain nicotine. However, this does not mean that vaping is considered a halal method of consuming CBD.
Even though it is indeed free of nicotine and other harmful substances, you still should not smoke or vaporize it. This is because he imitates sinners, and the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said, “Whoever imitates a people is one of them. ”Reported by Abu Dawood (4031).
CBD isolate crystals
You can buy CBD isolate crystals, but there's not much you can do with them without incorporating them into other products that contain oils or fats. It is the purest and most intact form of CBD which is Halal. However, due to the extra work required to dose the CBD crystals and turn them into a consumable form without vaping, we wouldn't recommend it to most people.
Conclusion :
It is best for Muslim consumers to choose halal CBD products, such as THC-free and alcohol-free CBD oil, to avoid any risk of consuming products that are considered haram. It is important to check third-party lab reports to ensure the quality and purity of products, and to learn about the laws in force in the country where you live or where you travel, especially if we are in regions such as the Middle East or Africa where the legislation can be more restrictive. It is also important to note that herbal vaporizers or e-liquids can be considered haram and this method of consumption is best avoided.
