Q: Cannabis oil is used to treat cancer. I would like to know if it is permissible to take cannabis oil for medical reasons, namely arthiritis. Consumption of excessive quantities at one go may lead to intoxication however I intend to take very little which will not lead to intoxication.
A: If it is recommended by a doctor and there is no equivalent alternative it is permissible.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
