Its therapeutic properties have been harnessed as a natural treatment for numerous health problems, such as pain, inflammation, and digestive disorders. In addition, , cannabis has been a common recreational drug at social events like -seshas,‖ where friends gather to smoke, chat, and share stories while appreciating the herb's effects. Furthermore, for some, especially Sufis, cannabis has mystical and spiritual qualities that help in meditation and contemplation, adding another dimension to the plant's value in Morocco. Although cannabis has a rich history of traditional use in Morocco, its legal status has been unstable and controversial since the country's independence in 1956. 8,9 However, in a ground-breaking move in July 2021, Morocco legalized the cultivation of cannabis for medical, cosmetic, and industrial purposes, joining the league of countries that have taken this historic step. 10 This decision was driven by the growing global market for medical cannabis, which is projected to increase by more than 20% annually, with Europe as the main consumer. 11 Morocco has a great opportunity to enter this market, credit to its favourable human, climatic and logistical conditions, as well as its strategic geographical location. The objective of this study is to survey the population in the Taounate and Al Hoceïma provinces, where cannabis cultivation and consumption have been a longstanding tradition for many generations. This study investigated the traditional uses of Cannabis sativa as well as various aspects of its social and functional uses, including recreational, therapeutic, and cosmetic applications. In addition, the study also analyzed how these practices are influenced by the mode of consumption and the specific components of the cannabis plant used in these situations.
