[quote]In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

Almost every body knows that smoking is injurious to health. Smoking and the chewing (quid of tobacco, betel and similar others) are one of the major causes of oral and other cancers. The causes are easily remembered by “6Ss” (Bailey), Smoking, Spirit, Spices, Sepsis, Syphilis, Sharp edge of the tooth causing repeated injury to inner side of lips and cheeks.

It must be remembered that a non-smoker, near a smoker is equally rather more affected in the short term because of lack of adaptation to withstand. And in a non-smoker a small dose of the smoke (nicotine) may cause the same consequences as the heavy dose in the smoker. On the other hand God, His prophet (peace be upon him) as well as His people dislike foul smell, which is surely, in addition to other injurious effects of smoking, a gift to the smoker. This foul smell is not easily removed by even regular mouthwashes and brushing.

In a Hadith, the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) had forbidden us, having eaten a raw onion, to enter the mosque and when this order is for a Halal thing what about the smoking, which is a bad thing?

IN ADDITION to the smoking there must also be a walk against the excessive use of spices especially chillies, which disturb the whole alimentary system.

*************

Although lung cancer is more common in men, the rate in women has increased while that in men has decreased. The cause may be explained by giving up smoking by the men and increasing smoking among the women.
