Ruling on the wudu and prayer of one who prays with smoke in his pocket

Question:
In the last of his questions, this questioner asks: What is the ruling on one who carries smoke, or cigarettes, in his pocket while performing the prayer? And does smoking invalidate the wudu?

Answer:
His prayer is valid, but he must repent to Allah, and he must abandon smoking. Smoking does not invalidate the wudu, but he must abandon it because it is forbidden, and it has many harms and much evil.
It is obligatory to abandon smoking, but if he prays with something in his pocket, his prayer is valid, meaning: it is not impure, it is not impure in a way that invalidates the prayer. Even if it is impure in meaning, it is not impure of the kind of urine and excrement, no. But it is impure in meaning, meaning: it is filthy in that it harms and causes damage. But if he prays with something in his pocket, his prayer is valid, except that he must repent to Allah from using it, and be cautious of it. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) accepts the repentance of those who repent . Yes.
