alertness
of world conscience. They said that each cigarette
contains an amount of 8% of its weight of the toxic nicotine, and that only
ten milligrams of it has the ability to kill a dog if it is mixed with it’s
food. They also said the smoking is the principal cause of the following
diseases: Lung cancer – cirrhosis stomach and esophagus cancer - hepatic
necrosis - hepatic fibrosis – and hypertrophy congestion of laryngeal
mucosa - trachea, bronchi - malaise, weakness
sluggishness - weakness of memory - psychological disorder which
result in anxiety, allergy and depression. The hepatic enlargement results
in the smoker's affliction with chronic
constipation, which in turn leads to piles. Besides, nicotine helps to form
oral moniliasis in the mouth and on the enamel which leads to tooth decay
and pushes the saliva, contaminated with moniliasis to the stomach which
results in gastric upset and
anemia. The last and the most dangerous disease, confirmed by the
International Health Organization is hyper tension which causes
atherosclorsis. Thus, smokers often suffer from angina and heart attacks.
Death pops its frightening head up menacingly with each fit the smoker is
subject to until he is finally destroyed by a cardiac arrest without
repentance. I seek refuge in Allah.
So, we ask Allah, to whom belong all perfection and majesty, to grant us
forgiveness, good health , mental and physical, and to guide us to the path
of righteousness and to bestow us with a good end of our lives.
Finally, we assert that persistence on smoking represents a continuation of
disobeying Allah, glory to Him, and a victory for cursed Satan. When Satan
is victorious over the sons of Adam, which is merely a transitory triumph,
this would lead him and those who followed suit at last to hellfire.
