Beatle nut/phaan

[color=magenta]As'salaamu alaykum

have you guys heard of beatle nut or phaan? its called "goowa" in bengali i fink thats hw you spell it and its a major thng in benglali weddings called sinni phaan, iv seen alot of bengalis chew the stuff n coming out wiv red gobs n lips , i myself love it, its a bit like chewing wood, but if you add stuff like rose powder n limestone (chuna) it tastes lovely

i get told off by my friends cuz i chew it every morning on my way to 6th form n i dont knw i fink im addictd to it

just wondering whats the ruling on it?is it haram?or can i still chew the thng[/color]

Lol!Personaly i think its a bad habbit..Prefer chewing wrigleys extra :j anyway its nt haram for sure but it can be makrooh if u give ppl problems from the smell of it or like spitting out the juice anywhere like alot of oldies-this is the UK nt bangladesh uknw lol btw im bengali so not trying to make fun. Just thot of miswak hmm we should make use of that. Its v rewarding and also gud for hygene.

Gossip is the most destructive thing in the universe...

[color=magenta]lolz spitting out the juice of it that is hilarious i hate it when ppl spit it out in the streets its so gross TB can spread like that, i prefer swallowing the thng but u knw when ppl have "shaada" isnt that tobacco so isnt that haraam?[/color]

Can I have one aswell, plzzz.....

Paan is nice. I love it - and always get a fair amount form rellies when they come back from karachi. Mithaa paan is nice after a meal, tombaco paan is nice as relaxation Lol . Lol first time I had that one couldnt stand up - and just collapsed into the settee - my pupho wasnt too impressed :oops: .

Khayr - now I can manage it quite well.

I disagree, I used to chew paan and wouldn't mind starting again. It's best to have paan just after lunch or dinner mMm...

If chewed with tobacco it can give you mouth and throat cancer. Allah says “don’t harm yourself”

in my mums house we always have some for guests. My parents tend to munch on it if we have guests or a really spicy meal, I wouldn't say they're addicts like Exquisite Wink

In my house me and my husband banned my mother in law from chewing it. She's a full on addict.Whenever her lips were moving if it wasn't for her 3 daily meals you could be sure it was paan and beetal nut, with all the trimmings you could think of wrapped up in a parcel.

I suspect she's had it all her life coz her mouth is in such a bad state. Apart from that she was too messy with it. We couldn't be cleaning up red stains off the sofas and carpets, clothes, sinks, too much work. We told her to go easy with it, that didn't work. So we emptied the house of it. Ramsacked her room aswell,well addicts tend to hide a stash don't they?

She was upset but she knows it was for her own good. She gets some when she visits my mums house, other than that she shall never taste that stuff again.

My dads mother died from mouth cancer, caused by this stuff and she had a worse habit than my mother in law. Even when she had a blatant hole in the side of her cheek and the docs said she would probably die from it, she continued to chew the stuff. So i don't approve of it. The sweet shipari you get in weddings is nice, and harmless if it's a one off. But as for the rest best to stay away from it completely lest you become addicted.

is paan a bengali thing ?

Abit of the subject ...

In pakiland you see alot of people but this green powder in their mouth,

my granny does too.... its common in pathans i think

Before only had paan as a leaf - but asked one of my uncles (whose ALWAYS got paan in his mouth) for some. nice Biggrin .

Paan to me sounds like a disgusting habit. I will never take it in my life Insh'Allah. It makes your teeth disgusting and red. If you take it regurlaly like every day your teeth will just become a horrible colour, Im only warning you.

[color=magenta]i am fully aware of the consequences of chewing paan well i brush my teth every time i chew it it so its all good[/color]

[b][color=DeepPink]O you who believe, If you help (in the cause of) Allah, He will help you, and make your foothold firm[/color][color=DeepSkyBlue] {Surah Muhammad7}[/color][/b]

ok im just giving you a warning, if you chew it with caution im sure you will be fine.

lol Exquisite I like paan a lot but only have it normally when som1 brings it from back home.

These past few days been at my cousins house cos of his wedding and been taking some from one of my uncles but have to do it on the sly. Apparently its not good and it apparently looks bad for me to have paan n my mouth :roll: .

Lol - they take the mick that Im becoming a karchi person cos its popular in karachi innit.

i agree

nothing is more gross then a bunch of ppl sitting down-chewing paan-with red/yellow manky teeth/tongue and spitting left right and centre

i've only see this on TV

thankfully none of my family/friends are into paan
