Summary
The Perak State Fatwa Committee ruled that shisha is haram, adopting the decision of the MKI Muzakarah Committee as a ruling guide. Muslims are forbidden to smoke shisha, to provide shisha smoking services or to engage in any activity related to shisha. The prohibition rests on the Quran, the hadith and legal maxims, since shisha harms health, wastes time and wealth, and is classed as a bad or vile thing.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
maka mesyuarat bersetuju memutuskan bahawa Shisha adalah haram.
