The pattern of their consumption has varied at different times and places in accordance with the cultural patterns of society and the circumstances of the time. In our own age, for a number of social, medical and economic reasons, alcohol is being recognized as a world –wide problem for which remedies and new ideas or policies are sought. Thus, Islam from its own policy and remedies on the use of alcohol, it examined the issue appropriately.

The paper also highlights on the categories of intoxicants, conditions to be fulfilled before Hadd punishment is inflicted, the methods and approaches used by Islam to end the problem of intoxicants.
