Summary
The Selangor State Fatwa Committee, at its 4/2013 meeting, ruled that shisha is haram. Muslims are prohibited from smoking it, providing shisha smoking services, or engaging in any activity related to shisha. The ruling rests on texts from the Quran and Hadith and on legal maxims, because shisha clearly harms health, wastes time and wealth, and is classed as something bad or vile.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Shisha adalah haram. Oleh itu, umat Islam dilarang menghisap Shisha atau menyediakan perkhidmatan menghisap Shisha atau apa-apa aktiviti yang berkaitan dengan Shisha.
