…and if you do … is it at the sake of putting others through it as well i.e. making them 2nd hand smokers?
Also why some young men have a hard time fully putting out the ciggy butt before flinging it out esp’ while outdoors. This act of some fools have driven me insane at times. I see a lit up cig on the ground and run at it from a mile’s distance to put it fully off. Scares me to death that what if it stats up a fire on the dry grass.
Is it really that hard to crush the cigbut completely before throwing it around?
Why is it so hard for smokers to understand to put their ciggyz away esp some uncles are so brutal when they poof away their cigars without a care in the world while u’re a guest in their house, have to sit at the conversation session thinger. Urgh!
2nd question… how many have opt for quitting and why is it so hard. Please tell!
It is always shameful and furious for some one to be a second hand smoker. Some years back we (me and my fellows) were going on a trip, we actually stopped one stranger in the train for smoking while none of us was smoking. Then we started smoking and that poor guy left the cabin and his seat without even saying anything to us. So sometimes, 1st hand smokers can feel shameful and furious too...
If some one is interested in something, then there must be a proper way. Cig. must be extinguished properly.
It is always better to call such uncles at your place and call some good smokers too, so that they can develop that feeling too.
I never opted for quitting smoking forever and neither did any of my close friends. But if some one opts for it (by his will, not to please some one), it is a matter of seconds. I have seen such people and even I opted once not to smoke again myself (when I was emotional a bit). For next 6-8 months I did not smoke. Then I thought one day why not enjoy life? So back to the game again...
No, I don't smoke. But I have smoked a few ciggies in my life. I lighted my first cigarette not because I was under some peer pressure or wanted 'a kick' out of it; but because I was under the midguided notion that smoking soothes nerves. I found the effects to the contrary of what I had expected. It, in no way, soothes you unless you've become addicted to the poison..In that case, one needs a steady supply of pioson in his/her bloodstream. Secondly, in my case it makes my chest congested..And my numerologist told me that I have a bad ticker so I must avoid smoking..:)( superstitions?)
I don't really mind people smoking occasionally..(that means a few ciggies a year) but I do have a problem with those who show a disregard for those who don't want to inhale the bloody fumes. Passive smoking is WORSE than active smoking...It's proven.There mustn't be any smoking in the public places.
The best way to get rid of smoking is to hook up with a woman who hates smoking....:) (and you think I'm kidding?) The irony is that if one hooks up with someone solely to quit smoking, he may end up smoking more than before.
On a more more serious note, there are patches available everywhere for those who want to break the habit and don't seem to be able to do it....
There is one very important point that is overlooked while discussing the issue..It is 'THE MOTIVE'..Why, in the first place, one started smoking...It may not be a desire to smoke as such. People abuse food also..To cut the long story short, if you can cure 'what ails thee'..you won't have to inject nicotine into your blood..And usually 'what ails thee' is nothing but an attempt to look 'cool'. What does that mean, I wonder!
oh i hate smoke and people who smoke...most of them have no regards for others who don't smoke. Its just sickening when you can smell it going into ur lungs. At my work they have nice patios outside and sometimes i wanna sit there to enjoy wheather...but almost every other person sitting there is smoking. I can feel it going into my lungs and i start to have difficulty breathing. Someone should tell them to look at themselves in the mirror...you can see the nahoosiat....wrinkles and paleness on their face. I don't understand why the hell people smoke in the first place when you know its gonna kill ya?
Smoking is Haram and if I tell you I do, I am admitting to a sin, which Allah :swt: might forgive me since it was between Him and me…But telling you my sins is tantamount to making you a witness…And in the Aakhira, you will speak out against me…Even on a bulletin board…
And no kidding, this really cuts down on the gossipping and backbiting too… Makes for a boring personality, but I’ve heard someone say that the most perfect gentleman would also be quite a bore…
Maybe that’s why adultery is such a voluminous sin, it’s because no matter happens, you got a witness right there…Wherever that is…
Now at least don't declare smoking as haram. People who are not smoking, may not feel comfortable with smokers, but smokers don't smoke to make them uncomfortable, they smoke just they can't resist. In no way it is haram.
People who think smoking is part of enjoying life may not be around for long to enjoy life!!! And no i don't smoke have tried it and it was the most disgusting thing ever!!!!
On good days, I try to get at least seven hours. If it's any less than that, then I have to take a nap during the day time, otherwise I can't function.
ohh and to answer the question... Nope never tried it!! although i've get friends who do and i dont find it disgusting... its their choice and their old enough to know the difference between good and bad.
Makes for a boring personality, but I’ve heard someone say that the most perfect gentleman would also be quite a bore…
the fume makes me sick..:yukh:
