In the normal sense, you place a bet and make a predition that will enable you loose your money or double it

In many cases is a sin, betting involve droping money which leads to stealing angd cheating, the other party will not want you to win the bet by different ways like lieing, fighting and even double crossing you to get back the money when he/she discovered no dime on him which will eventually lead to disaster or probably bloodshed.

No i dont think it is,It all depends on what and of what means you bet?But when your betting is clean,you harm no one and it doesnt offend God then it isnt.

ALLAH FORBID BETTING IN HOLY QURAN AND I THINK BETTING IS FOR THOSE WHO ARE IRRESPONSIBLE..................LIKEWISE BABA IJEBU IS WRONG IN OUR COMMUNITY.
