Mabrouk Atiya clarifies smoking fatwa
Dr. Mabrouk Attia, Professor of Islamic Jurisprudence at Al-Azhar University, has clarified his stance on the ruling regarding smoking. He explained that his previous description of it as "disliked" was a reference to Sheikh Mahmoud Shaltout's opinion and not a personal endorsement. He emphasized that smoking is "harmful and disgusting." Additionally, he confirmed that he does not label smoking as "permissible" (halal), and his earlier comments were solely to clarify Sheikh Shaltout's viewpoint. He stressed that conveying scholars' opinions does not equate to personal approval. Attia also clarified that contracting COVID-19 or other illnesses does not necessarily mean God's wrath upon the sufferer. He pointed out that there is a distinction between divine test and divine punishment, asserting that no one can truly bear the anger of God and that it is inappropriate to hastily label patients with diseases as divine punishment.
