Smoking is Harâm Muhammad Afifi It is evident beyond doubt that smoking is injurious to health. Allah says in the Qur’an: “And make not your own hands contribute to your destruction” (2:195). Muslim scholars in the past differed in opinion regarding smoking because of lack of evidence relating cigarette smoking to disease. Those who considered Makruh (a hated act) regarded this lack of evidence. But since 30 years ago the evidence clearly demonstrates that smoking is injurious to health. The majority of Ahl Sunnah wal-Jama’ah scholars and Jumhur have clearly stated that smoking is Haram. Quotes from some scholars: Shaykh Abu Bakr Jabir al-Jazairi a Professor in Islamic University of Madinah and a famous teacher in Masjid an-Nabawi has clearly explained the ‘Hukm’ of smoking derived from the Qur’an and the Sunnah: “Anything that harms the human body is Haram” “The consensus (Ijma’) of Ulama’, prohibits the act of destroying property unnecessarily or using it not for the path of Shara’ as in the case of smoking” “Bringing harm to others is Harâm and so does smoking” “It is clear that Sharia’ condemns smoking as a disgraceful and damaging act. Smoking is an act of sin and it is wrong for it is Haram and it is Wajib to abstain from it.” Ibn Hajr in his ‘Fath al-Mubin’ gave 2 points why smoking is Haram in Islam: The act leads to harmful effects, whether noticed or unseen.

Some friends asked me to recommend the best e-cigarette for the cheapest money for a good enough vaping experience for them to see if they could do this in order to stop smoking. Here’s the best I’ve found so far, the Madvapes Disposable E-Cig 510. In this video, I show how I arrived at this conclusion, the un-boxing, how it vapes, and how to get started using it, since this e-cig does not come with any instructions. Please stop smoking, however you can do it, for yourself, your family, others who love you, and your wallet. music by Kevin MacLeod – Thank you Kevin for your free royalty-free music Filmed with a Kodak Zi8 Edited in Windows 7 with Windows Live Movie Maker

Goofy (again playing George Geef) is a nicotine addict to the extreme. He smokes while doing income tax, before going to bed, after waking up in the morning, and at work. Finally, he decides to quit. He soon learns it’s not as easy as that and everywhere he looks, he is tempted to start again until he finally cracks. He runs everywhere yelling, “Smoke! Smoke! Smoke!” but with no luck. Finally, he asks a man for a cigar and the man gladly gives him one…an exploding cigar which finally has Goofy vowing, “I quit!”.
