Abstract

Gambling is considered a criminal offense, defined as wagering an amount of money where the winner receives all the staked funds. This activity can have detrimental effects on society and erode the nation's ethical principles. The issue of gambling behavior escalates as it approaches the diagnostic criteria for pathological gambling, characterized by maladaptive and persistent actions leading to a cascade of further problems, such as repeatedly attempting to gamble despite consistent losses. Across various religious perspectives, gambling is generally regarded as a forbidden practice. The online gambling games engaged in by the community arise from social interactions among its members. Such social interaction can be likened to a double-sided coin, presenting both beneficial and adverse outcomes. A case in point regarding the negative impact involves students who have participated in online gambling activities.
