\u201cThey are the preservation of religion, preservation of human life, mind, preservation of progeny, and property protection,\u201d he explained on Monday, July 4, 2022.<\/p>\n\n

If it aims to preserve life, Dr Prawitra stated that it is allowed to use marijuana. On the other hand, to preserve the mind, the use of marijuana for pleasure purposes is prohibited.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cThe medical marijuana fatwa is good to emphasize the line for medical purpose only,\u201d said the lecturer of UNAIR Faculty of Law.<\/p><\/p>\n\n

The medical marijuana fatwa should be well-accommodated to prevent any abuse. The fatwa, he said, will also serve to prevent misinterpretation that marijuana is completely legalized.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cSomeone who is fit as a fiddle using drugs is still prohibited,\u201d he said.<\/p><\/p>\n\n

Prawitra suggested that MUI should consider the urgency of medical marijuana if they are going to issue the legality fatwa.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cHisbunnafs, preservation of life, is underlined. It is justifiable to prevent the life-threatening condition by using marijuana,\u201d he said. The purpose of marijuana is to preserve life without jeopardizing the mind.<\/p><\/p>\n\n

However, Prawitra said that the fatwa should be non-binding. It functions just as equal as legal expert\u2019s professional opinion.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cIt is nonbinding fatwa, in principle,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n\n

In order to have binding legal force, the legalization of medical marijuana must be stipulated in the law. The issue should have been discussed in the national legislation program earlier.<\/p>\n\n

Consequently, the government of Indonesia should be able to carry out law enforcement. The question is, if it is legalized in the future, will Indonesia be able to prevent marijuana abuse?<\/p><\/p>\n\n

\u201cI am worried that if it is not controlled properly, marijuana, which was originally used for medical purposes, will be misused for people\u2019s pleasure,\u201d said Prawitra concerned.<\/p><\/p>\n\n

He urged the government to carry out law enforcement properly. Weak and minimum instruments of law enforcement only waste medical marijuana legalization.<\/p><\/p>\n\n

\u201cConsider the nation\u2019s readiness carefully. Don\u2019t let the good intention go wrong. Prioritize the benefit to eliminate harm. Insya Allah [God willing], God bless,\u201d he concluded.<\/p><\/p>\n\n
