Their was history of Islamic people had involved in the gambling before the independence from the colonisation of many Islamic country.After the independence all over the world,the Islamic people made their own rule for their people.Then they fabricated the rules of Islamic against gambling.But the fact is,I had know many Muslim who had their involvement in gambling even now.I had not portrayed against Islamic,it’s just an argument for the gambling history .
Not all Muslims are extremists and not all Muslims follow their religious leader the same way as other religions. That is the reason why despite being Muslim, they still engage themselves in gambling activities. Some Christian religions is worst, they forbid people from gambling activity but they allow raffles when they are in need of fund.
As far as we know gambling had been inculcated into the DNA of humanity, even before Islam or any religion is founded. So it is normal to see people not following their religions and giving in to their "worldly desire" such as gambling.
Well I can't help but say something that many have gone through (including me) I live in a country that spent almost 20 years without physical casinos by order of a government that what it did was devastate the country, after that time the same government under the same political or ideological current decided to let them work and function again (Under their rules) however during all that time many players entered the online casino platforms, they have been entering a lot in stake.com, bitcasino.io, SB , because they are platforms that they could easily interact with and only with crypto, so all these people who have large amounts of money have been well served, and now they are entering much more, in this case it was not out of laziness but because they were looking for fun.
Honestly, I don't think that the lack of physical casinos devastates the country, it is the corruption of the government officials that devastate your country.
