Smoke?!

Ohoyyyy sailors how you doin'? 

I can see some of my friends arguing and and quarrelling because of this. To be precise, in between opposite sexes. Obviously, almost everyone who doesn't smoke, especially ladies would be hating such thing to the extent that they'll hate the person who commit it. You see just how despising a piece of solid is. Besides the fact that it is lethally pernicious to our health!

But if you ask me, I wouldn't exactly use the word hate. My elder brother and brother-in-law smoke, I don't hate them for it. Ya, I hate it when they go out to smoke, but I don't really find it disturbing. I don't really despise it to the degree of spatting with smokers. Though people who blow their smoke to my face obviously are asking for a punch in the face.

But when it comes to my significant other, I hope he's not a smoker. It is probably only one third of the male population in the world who don't smoke. Still I hope he's one of 'em amin amin. 

To all smokers out there, you have no idea how grateful most people around you would be if you stop. Besides, in a way it is haram no?

Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Let there be no harming, nor reciprocating harm.” [Sahih - Ibn Majah]
