Allah ya ce, {Ya ku waɗanda suka yi imani! Giya da caca, da miƙa hadaya ga duwatsu, da (duba ta hanyar) kibiyoyi, abin ƙyama ne ne daga aikin Shaiɗan. Ku nisance shi domin ku samu rabauta. Shaiɗan yana nufin ne kawai ya haifar da adawa da ƙiyayya a tsakaninku ta hanyar giya da caca, ya kuma hana ku ambaton Allah da yin salla. To, shin ba za ku hana kanku ba?} (5:90-91)

Allah says, {O ye who believe! Intoxicants and gambling, sacrificing to stones, and (divination by) arrows, are an abomination, of Satan's handiwork: eschew such (abomination) that ye may prosperO0 Satan's plan is (but) to excite enmity and hatred between you, with intoxicants and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of Allah, and from prayer: will ye not then abstain?} (5:90-91)

Caca na nufin wasan dara, wasan chess da hasashe ta hanyar goro, ƙwallo, duwatsu da kowane irin fare. Tana cikin abubuwan cin zarafin haƙƙoƙin mutane da Allah ya haramta a cikin faɗinSa: {Kada ku cinye dukiyoyinku a tsakaninku da ƙarya, kuma kada ku aika da ita zuwa ga alƙalai don ku cinye wani ɓangare na dukiyar mutane da zalunci alhali kuna sane.} (Al-Baqara: 188)

Gambling connotes backgammon, chess and speculation by nuts, balls, stones and all kinds of betting. It ranks under encroaching upon people's rights that Allah has made forbidden in His saying, {And do not eat up your property among yourselves for vanities, nor use it as bait for the judges, with intent that ye may eat up wrongfully and knowingly a little of (other) people's property.} (2:188)
