Author: Ibrahim Aal ish-Sheikh | Pages: 46 | Size: 1 MB
The colossal devastation of human health cause by tobacco use and
smoking in the recent centuries cannot be denied by any sensible person.
It is the single largest preventable cause of death all over the world
causing unmentionable suffering and millions of debts yearly, yet even
today the multinational tobacco corporations refuse to accept the
conclusive scientific evidence and continue to selfishly promote their
multi billion dollar industry often among those ignorant to the far
reaching hazards and health consequences. The Islamic legal judgements
of some of the most eminent scholars – Jurists of our era, - the use
and promotion of all tobacco products is strictly prohibited (haram) and
juristically punishable according to Islamic Law and legal precepts.
The lucid, intelligent and legally sound arguments presented countered
the feeble claim that tobacco use is merely obnoxious (Makrooh) and
therefore a lesser social evil to be tolerated society.
