credit: Dr. Hannan

an honest question from a non muslim friend ..

" adakah merokok itu haram?'

well, if it's up to me.. i would say it's haram

even kelantan chief minister said that merokok itu haram...

there is a poster somewhere in the hospital..

a petition signed by all physician , cardiologist , consultant - all on term agreeing that smoking is HARAM in Islam..

why?

coz it's hazardous , and it kills u.. and people around u..

a true story at my clinic today...

a lady came to see me for a pre operative assessement.

she's planned for some ENT operation next month.

as she sat on the chair at my desk,

i took a glance at her chest x ray ,

then i asked her... " mak cik , husband makcik perokok ke.. "

and she replied .." he just died 2 months ago due to lung cancer "

yes , if ur spouse is a chronic smoker..

u are likely to have the same complication..

the smoke from his cigaratte... most of them inhaled by people around them..

so , the wives are the usual victim of the situation..

therefore..

yes i would say merokok is haram.

those who want to get married ,

dont marry a perokok..

if u r looking for a son in law...

make sure he doesnt smoke

or daugther will pay the price in the future...
