At present, even the carefully scheduled drug treatment and rehabilitation programmes still faced with the problem of recidivism amongst its patients; some reported as high as 90% for half Way houses programmes. It is to these limitations that some practitioners revert to the traditional and spiritual approaches to treat and rehabilitate drug dependents. This study presents the lnabah drug treatment programme, one which blends traditional, Islamic spiritual approach with modern day therapeutic community modality in rehabilitating psychoactive drug dependents. Rehabilitation center shows a 16% relapse rate at the twelveth week. This shows that traditional and spiritual model in rehabilitating drug dependents can be viewed as an effective alternative method for the treatment of drug addiction.
