Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Finally, in this message, a woman asks about smoking: does it invalidate the ablution? It is known medically that it spreads throughout the entire body, and after smoking, this is evident on the smoker. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Smoking is forbidden. It contains dangers and harms, and it is devoid of benefit due to the impurity in it: the impurity of its smell, the impurity of its taste, and the impurity of its effect on the body. It is impure in every respect. Therefore, it is forbidden, and it is not permissible for a Muslim to smoke or use it. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Baqarah 2:195] to destruction. It is destruction and a waste of money without benefit. Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, says: [Al-A'raf 7:31] Spending money on smoking is among the greatest forms of extravagance and waste, because there is no benefit in it and no good in it in any way. However, it does not invalidate the ablution, because the things that invalidate the ablution are known, and it is not among them. But one sins by it, and it is a disobedience, yet it does not break the ablution. Yes.

do not throw [yourselves] with your [own] hands
وَلَا تُلْقُوا بِأَيْدِيكُمْand eat and drink, but be not excessive
وَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا وَلَا تُسْرِفُوا
