Depends on what you get and how its consumed,  cannabis oil is known as a medical drug, smoking/eating the leaves is known as a drug but even that isn't the case in some places such as certain states in the US.

 

I think Sikhs should use the oil if necessary it helps with pains, such as back and is similar to taking ibuprofen etc. We should not smoke or eat the leaves as that gets you high.

What about TCH? I know a Sikh who takes it.

Assuming u meant THC, that is a psychoactive compound used to get high....

Marijuana is used because of its primary active ingredient, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), produces a relaxed state and may heighten the senses.
