Kaleem... kisayni bili kumbha nochey... Just because you LOVE smoking and find that other ppl are against it, and have clearly posted enough evidence of that, you are just going around pointing fingers now. If you like to make a point, against what everyone else has said, plz come with facts. Quit pointing fingers at people, nobody did that.
And I'm not a "mullah", as I said in one of the posts, I am just stating a well thought out opinoin backed by facts, references from hadees and Quran and studies. When you can do the same, then we'll have an argument about anything.
If you disagree, cool. I would love to hear your side of the arguments, but not the ignorance that you are showing by just pointing fingers.

Tipz, what ignorance are you talking about? When did I point fingers? Your argument is that suicide is haram and smoking is slowly killing yourself hence it is haram. Correct..that is what your main point is right. I hope you do not drink soda, because it has been linked to cancer. I hope you do not eat meat, becuase it has been linked to amny diseases.Next time you get in a car to drive just remeber that latest study suggested that people who dirve more than two hours a day are more likley to be a victim of a heart attack. So stop now before you kill yourself slowly.
Well thought out (argument)by whom? Apany monh mian methoo ban rahay ho.
On a more personal note, I dont give a crap about who is against smoking and who is for it. I have as much right to smoke as you have to ask that smoking be banned. People like you shoul live in California, that is the best place for lefties.

It's haram because it's bad for the health. It might have some benefits (like getting a buzz) but mostly it's bad for the health.

Like magic, in the Qur'an, it says it has some benefits but it's mostly bad and one should seek refuge in Allah.

Its a pity why people strtech it to length to declare some thing haraam which is not. It is makroh (disliked) and thats all. Move along. Whats big deal :confused:

Btw I never smoked, but in my opinion health risks associated with smooking are actually for chain smoking not normal smoking. As they are health risk for excessive use of Alcohal, caffene, sugar, fats etc. If we consume any of these in balanced manner they are not harmful, but excess of any thing is bad.

I have seen many people who have smoked all there life and are healthy in thier 60s ,70s and 80s.My one coleague says he is smoking since his school days and now he is in 60s and perfectly healthy. But many chain smoker start tumbling in 40s.

Same is true for Huqqa. People in village smoke all there life and remain healthy.
