Question

Are we allowed to use cannabis oil because someone is suffering from a particular disease and this oil is proven to be very effective?

Answer

If it is recommended by an experienced physician, and there are no other halaal alternatives, then it may be used.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
