Yes, smoking is prohibited in Islam.
But if people like not to follow, its not religion to be blamed here. The report says 10% smoke. So there are 90% who do not smoke.
Please do not judge the religion Only by its weaker followers.There are good NON SMOKING muslims living here (locals and expats) also.
Lets try to educate the smokers may it be a qatari or a non qatari that its not a good thing, medically, religiously, socially, and culturally.
