Afghanistan Gambling Guide (despite the sharia law ban on gambling it is a regular occurrence in the countryside)

Summary: Gambling is illegal in Afghanistan according to Sharia Law (officially the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, a poor Islamic autocratic country, one of the poorest Arab countries, with a population of 40 million). Despite this, it is a regular occurrence in the countryside, details below.

Online gambling is illegal as well, technically. However, it is not specifically regulated, gambling websites are not blocked and this does not seem to be enforced.

You can find a list of online gambling websites, which accept players from Afghanistan by scrolling below, or click here to jump to that list:

History of Gambling in Afghanistan- click to expand

Gambling has always been illegal in Afghanistan, ever since the independence of the country in 1919.

Gambling (maisir) is illegal in Afghanistan, according to the Criminal Law of Afghanistan1, which is heavily inspired by Islamic (Shari’ah) law2.

Sharia law and gambling: In Afghanistan, as in the entire Muslim world, all forms of gambling are forbidden by the Islamic law. Sharia law was strictly enforced in Afghanistan under the Taliban control of the country between 1996 and 2001.

According to Islamic law:

  • It is unlawful for the Muslim to gain wealth by gambling: According to the Islamic teaching one ought to earn a living by honest, serious, hard work, and relying on luck to gain money is contrary to this principle.
  • Muslims must not participate in gambling for recreational purposes: The reason for this prohibition lies in the addictive nature of gambling, which causes the gambler to neglect his responsibilities to society and the Creator. Interestingly, gambling is mentioned in conjunction with drinking, emphasizing the similarities and connection between gambling addiction and alcoholism.
    • /Comment: This seems to be very much true in contemporary Afghanistan as well. Illegal betting is often accompanied by illicit consumption of alcohol as well. Seems like not much changed over the years, and the some old societal ills are still very much present despite the regressive, autocratic, Islamic regime./ 

 

This is a picture of group of Afghan men participating in illegal gambling, betting on a traditional carrom game. Apart form illegal animal fights, illegal betting on carrom seem to be also popular. You can read more about the various illegal forms of terrestrial and internet gambling in Afghanistan to the left of he picture. A list of online gambling websites, which accept players from Afghanistan is also included as well on this page.

Carrom games often involve betting (group of Afghan men playing carrom)

Gambling is strictly forbidden by the Quran, and it is considered Satan’s handiwork.

However, now after the NATO-invasion of Afghanistan the enforcement of gambling laws (and several other laws) became less rigorous in the cities (not in the countryside though, very little changed there).

UPDATE 2022: However, now that the US and NATO troops left Afghanistan and the Taliban took over there is a marked increase in Islamist extremism. And everyone can expect stricter, more severe punishments for every infraction.

Gamblers can face serious fines or even jail time (or even worse now that the Taliban is in power). Knowing these prohibitions it might be surprising that Afghanistan has quite a few traditional forms of gambling, these often involve forcing animals to fight for entertainment (details can be found in the betting on blood sports section below).

Apart from hurting animals for amusement, carrom games (the traditional table game, pictured on the right) often involve wagering as well. Although, this is just small scale, friendly, social gambling (still illegal) and it is blood sports, which seem to attract the “high rollers of Afghanistan”.

 

Online gambling is illegal as well. Online gambling is not mentioned in the criminal code of Afghanistan. However, because all forms of  gambling are considered illegal it applies to digital games of chance as well.

However, knowing just how lax the enforcement of land-based gambling is, it’s not surprising to learn that illegal online gambling is also prevalent, and it is also unpunished.

While betting on animal fights is the leading form of illegal gambling in the countryside, in the bigger cities playing on gambling websites is the preferred activity of the more educated, intellectual segment of the country.

/Comment: In the few big cities, which have a decent internet infrastructure. Let’s not forget that Afghanistan has a very bad internet penetration, 22.0%, and even the few, who do have access to the internet have low quality access3./

Foreign gambling websites are not blocked, and players, who keep their activates to themselves, playing only in the privacy of their own homes, are not prosecuted or even fined.

Although, there aren’t any online gambling websites, which would be accessible in Dari or Pashto (the official languages of Afghanistan), which means only the more educated, richer, urban segment of the population, which speaks foreign languages, is able to patriciate in internet gambling.

That is a really small segment of the population, which means betting on blood sports is by far the more prevalent activity, sadly.

Hopefully the country realizes that gambling is very much prevalent despite the ban, and they will consider just legalizing it, so people can actually go to legal, regulated, safe, taxpaying gambling venues. It would help develop the tourism and hospitality sector as well (because casinos often build hotels as well) and it would attract investment and help the cash-strapped government with some much need tax revenue.

Of course now that the Taliban is in power this is not likely to happen in the next 10+ years.

UPDATE 2022: I added this section because you might be wondering:

How is it legal for online gambling websites to accept players from Afghanistan? Isn’t it illegal?

It’s only illegal for Afghan citizens to play online. These foreign online gambling websites, which accept players from Afghanistan, are registered and licensed in foreign countries, and the Afghan laws only apply within the borders of Afghanistan (within the so called jurisdiction of the country, they do not apply to these foreign gambling websites).

According to the local gambling laws of the countries in which these offshore gambling companies operate it’s perfectly legal to accept players from Afghanistan.

But it’s not legal for Afghan citizens to place bets on these platforms.

International law can be complicated, and enforcement is even more tricky, I hope this clears this up.

However, I officially do not recommend playing online form Afghanistan, it’s illegal, and you should always act according to the laws of your country, even if it’s not enforced, play at your own risk.

You can find a list of online gambling websites, which accept players from Afghanistan below. 

 

Can tourists play online from Afghanistan? 

Yes, the laws discussed on this webpage only apply to Afghan citizens, and they do not apply to tourists. Tourists (expats, non-citizens, illegal migrants) can play online freely.

 

Betting on blood sports in Afghanistan

All forms of blood sports are officially illegal in Afghanistan. Betting on blood sports is also illegal.

However, this does not stop people from engaging in both, regularly. It is said to be especially popular among the Uzbeks and Pashtuns, and in the countryside (the poorer the region, the more popular it is).

The following blood sports are so widespread in the countryside that some have even considered them traditional Afghan sports4:

  • dog fighting
  • quail, partridge fighting (yes, it’s a real thing, watch the video below)
  • cockfighting

 

These animal fights are often accompanied by consumption of illegal alcohol and betting. Even though the mullahs denounce this as sinful the police almost never intervenes.

You can learn more about these fights and the betting that takes place during the events (often thousands of $, which is a lot of money in country with a median income of $700) by watching this mini-documentary:

Legal status of gambling in Afghanistan:

 

Casino gambling in Afghanistan

Casinos in Afghanistan: illegal, players are prosecuted

Online casino gambling in Afghanistan: illegal, players could potentially be prosecuted

 

There are no physical casinos in Afghanistan, casinos and casino games are banned in the country.

Punishments for participating in illegal gambling range from $150 fine to imprisonment or public beating (and operators get much more severe punishments).

Online casinos are also illegal.

It is illegal for Afghans to play in online casinos. However, this is not enforced, and the government does not monitor the online gambling activities of its citizens, and they do not block gambling websites.

Several online casino sites accept players from Afghanistan.

Reportedly players are not punished for playing online, if they do it in the privacy of their own homes and they don’t tell anyone about it. But it’s still technically illegal, therefore we do not recommend it.

The online casinos below accept players from Afghanistan.

Bingo in Afghanistan

Bingo halls in Afghanistan: illegal, players are prosecuted

Online Bingo in Afghanistan: illegal, players could potentially be prosecuted

 

Bingo, as all other forms of gambling, is illegal in Afghanistan.

Bingo is unknown in Afghanistan, most people don’t even know what it is.

The only reported, officially legal bingo games were those of the NATO troops stationed in Afghanistan. Before their withdrawal from the country the soldiers sometimes organized bingo nights to relive stress.

Online bingo is also illegal.

The following bingo websites accept players from Afghanistan.

Poker in Afghanistan

Poker halls in Afghanistan: illegal, players are prosecuted

Online Poker in Afghanistan: illegal, players could potentially be prosecuted

 

Poker, while not considered a game of luck in many countries (at least non-banking tournament poker), it is considered gambling in Afghanistan, and as such it is illegal.

Poker is also mostly unknown in the country, it was only played by soldiers stationed in the country.

Now that the Taliban is in power again poker also has this stigma attached to it (just like bingo and most forms of gambling), it is seen as an immoral Western activity, not fit for a true Muslim. And in a country, where you can get beaten up for wearing jeans and a t-shirt, instead of the more traditional perahan tunban, it’s best to fit in.

/Comment: If you are form Afghanistan, and you happen to like poker, it’s better if you keep it to yourself./

Online poker is also illegal.

However, some major online poker sites do accept players from Afghanistan, but there are much more sites, which do not allow Afghans to to play. It’s a controversial topic.

Despite all of this, there is one accomplished professional poker player from Afghanistan, Sherkhan Farnood*.

He has since retired from playing poker, but not before winning over $600 000 (he was also the Chairman of Kabul Bank until late 2010). He publicly acknowledged playing poker many times but probably his status, wealth and connections shielded him from the repercussions of openly engaging in an illegal activity.

He has also admitted to practicing playing poker online many times. I wouldn’t advise being so public about your poker habits if you are just an average 9-to-5 working joe.

The following online poker sites accept players from Afghanistan.

Sports betting in Afghanistan

Bookmakers, betting shops in Afghanistan: illegal, players are prosecuted

Online sports betting in Afghanistan: illegal, players could potentially be prosecuted

 

Sports betting is considered gambling (maisir) and it is forbidden (haram) under Islamic law. Some Muslims, especially in Iran and Saudi Arabia try to circumvent this by stating that they are only “predicting” the outcome of the race.

/Comment: However, it is not advised to use this excuse in Afghanistan now that the Taliban is in charge again, it most likely won’t work./

Despite this, as mentioned above, this law is disregarded regularly. And even now, under the Taliban, tribal people in the countryside still bet on animal fights.

Betting on animal fights has quite a bit of a history and following in Afghanistan. Most well-known is probably bird fighting, most often featuring quails (most bigger Afghan marketplaces feature stalls selling fighting birds). Betting on these fights is banned by the Taliban, it  is still a regular occurrence (although, this might change now that they are solidifying their control over the country).

These events, despite being illegal, attract quite a crowd and thousands of $ of bets (as you can see on the videos above, in the blood sports betting in Afghanistan section), but despite this the police doesn’t intervene, even though they know about it.

/Comment: Perhaps they get a cut of the profit. If you are form Afghanistan and you know more about this please leave a comment. Thank you./

Online sports betting is illegal in Afghanistan.

What was mentioned above, in the other sections, applies to sports betting as well: it is illegal, it might be risky (although bettors do not appear to be prosecuted, as long as they keep it to themselves) and not many foreign sportsbooks accept punters from Afghanistan.

The online sportsbooks below accept punters from Afghanistan.

Lottery in Afghanistan

Lottery in Afghanistan: illegal, players are prosecuted

Online lottery in Afghanistan: illegal, players could potentially be prosecuted

 

Lottery is considered to be a game of chance, and it is illegal under Sharia law.

Afghanistan is one of the few countries in the world, which doesn’t have a national lottery (even many Muslim countries have a lottery).

Some lotteries and raffles may not be considered gambling in the traditional sense: free lotteries, promotional raffles and lotteries, which are technically giveaways, these might be exempt from the ban.

Online lottery is also illegal.

According to the Afghan Sharia law, Afghan players can not buy lottery tickets from foreign online lotteries, this is considered illegal.

Afghan players can also not participate in foreign lottery draws, in person, as tourists visiting other countries, that’s also officially illegal. However, this would be difficult to enforce, and you could easily get away with it.

The following websites allow people from Afghanistan to purchase lottery tickets online.

There aren’t any online lottery platforms, which would allow players from the country to purchase lottery tickets online, to the best of our knowledge. If you know of any please leave a comment.

 

Bitcoin gambling in Afghanistan

Cryptocurrency wagering in Afghanistan: illegal like all other forms of online gambling, but players are not prosecuted, bitcoin is anonymous, if you play from Afghanistan it’s best to use bitcoin, it’s untraceable

 

Bitcoin gambling is not regulated in Afghanistan unsurprisingly. However, it is merely another form of gambling, which is forbidden by Islamic law.

However, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are untraceable and anonymous.

The anonymity granted by bitcoin already helps Afghan women, who are often forced out of school at a young age. Working online for bitcoins is one of the very few ways for them to gain some measure of financial independence*.

And bitcoin provides the same anonymity for you if you are playing online. In fact, if you are playing online from Afghanistan I highly recommend using virtual currencies for extra protection.

The bitcoin casinos below accept players from Afghanistan.

Thank you for visiting:
This is a selfie of the author and owner of Simon's Casino Gambling Blog, me, Simon András Péter, a.k.a. by the internet pseudonym SimonTheSorcerer, owner of Simon's Online Marketing Kft. This is the homepage of my online casino gambling blog, you can see what's on the website, the links to all the different sections of the website.

That's me, Simon, thank you for visiting.

Don't worry, this is not an ad! ;) Just wanted to make sure to tell you that I'm glad you visited this gambling blog. I'm Simon, the only author and the man behind this blog (if you are interested, my unusual life story can be found on the homepage, under the "About me" dropdown section).
I'm an independent gambling blogger since 2012. In this sector dominated by huge media companies, casino operators and online marketing networks, who can easily spend $ millions on their online gambling blogs, it's not easy for an independent nobody like me to survive. It took me about 6 years, working my ass off, to even have a chance to be noticed by visitors like you. I'm lucky enough that for a few years now, I make enough money to be able to do this full time (before that, I had part-time jobs, ghost writing gigs, online marketing this and that).
Now I can finally do this full time, thanks to visitors like you! And it means a lot! If you are interested, please bookmark this site (no social media profiles, I no longer have any, but please feel free to share anything on any social media networks, if you still use them). I don't have any money to advertise, and if you have a personal blog, any social media profile, please mention my gambling blog and link back to it. This the only way for a small website like this to grow. Thank you!

Charity: As a way to help others, to give back, I sometimes donate to Kiva. If you click on the ads on the website, I make some money. And in a good month, if I make more than my expenses, I donate to people and projects on Kiva.
Kiva helps young entrepreneurs in developing countries, which is an issue close to my heart for obvious reasons. If you have the means, please sign up with the revolutionary non-profit company Kiva.org and help people lift themselves out of poverty, through hard-work, and an initial investment (non-profit loan). These non-profit loans encourage entrepreneurship and hard work instead of creating a dependent class that is afraid to get a job, or start a business (because if they did, they would no longer get support and free money, disincentivizing hard work and entrepreneurship). This is the right way to fight poverty in developing countries (or anywhere else really), and if this is something you are interested in, and if you would like to know more, or to help out, please check out Kiva.org here. Thank you!
