Assalamualaikum Wr.

Honorable ones the juries, the participant of English speech contest, and
all audiences.
Before I begin to give a speech, I would like to invite you to thank to Allah
the Almighty, Who has given us Mercy and Blessing, so we can meet
together in this place. And lets deliver sholawat and salam to our prophet
Muhammad SAW, Who has brought us from the darkness to the
brightness, so we are always in the right path.

Ladies and gentlemen

Drug? What is that? I am sure you all already know, and may be better
than me about what drug is and what the advantages and disadvantages
are. Drugs actually are medicine for anesthetize patients in surgery. But
that perception was misapplied by some people.
Drugs have been misapplied by some people for a long time. Some people
which use drugs beyond the medical treatment consider that drugs can
make them feel better when they facing some problems , make them feel
easy to find new brilliant ideas or just for a pleasure.

I am sure you will never forget the accident in Tugu Tani, Jakarta, when a
drugs user, Apriliani, drove her car with high speed and hit the
pedestrians in a Tugu Tani bus stop. The recent tragedy in Pondok Indah
where a man with the influence of drugs drove his car and hit many
people on the road is another example. It obviously proofs that in the
effect of drugs, hallucination of the drugs user is bigger than other normal
people. They cannot distinguish between the real world and the
hallucination world and consider all things in around them are like a dream
and not real.

The effect of drugs are not only dangerous for drugs user themselves but
also people surrounding. For the users, drugs are so risky because they
may lead to overdoses, HIV/AIDS and brain or mental damage. Drugs are
also dangerous for the people surrounding as it has already mentioned
above. The dangers of consuming drugs open our eyes that the usage of
drugs beyond the medical treatments is profitless. Because drugs just lead
us in the destruction for the users themselves and for other people
surrounding.

Dear ladies and gentlemen

But it is so sad, if we hear many of our young generations consume the

drugs such as Heroin, cokain, Koplo, dextron, extacy, or marijuana . They
merely consume drugs to get drunk, enjoyment, and temporal satisfaction
without consider the risks.

As moslems we have the guidance from the holy quran that drinking
alcoholic drink is forbiden, and it is bad action, and despicable deed, as
Allah Said in the holy qur'an : "ya ayyuhalladzina amanu innamal khomru
walmaysir wal anshob wal azlam rijsummin amalisyton fajtanibuhu
laalakum tuflihun." It means : "oh ye the believers actually alcoholic drink,
gambling, and draw destiny is despicable from the evils action so avoid
them, may be you will be the pleasure people.(almaidah verse : 90)"

Because the drugs or the alcoholic drink is so dangerous for our health, for
our body, for our future. So we must keep a way from it. we must avoid it.
Dont try to consume it, dont try to sell or buy it. Those are what I can
deliver to you at this moment, thank a lot for your attention and I ask
forgiveness for my mistakes, and the last I say:

WasalamualaikumWr. Wb.
