Haram

Haram refers to actions that are explicitly prohibited in Islam and are considered major sins for believers. The behaviors that are clearly stated as haram in the fundamental sources of the Qur'an and Sunnah negatively affect the religious lives of Muslims. Haram includes certain acts that can lead to the collapse of individual and societal values. Behaviors such as alcohol consumption, interest-based transactions, and theft are considered haram. Haram actions produce negative consequences not only at the societal level but also at the individual level. The Islamic religion encourages Muslims to avoid haram actions, considering their pursuit of a virtuous life.
