I appreciate your 2 cents, we're all forumers here but that doesn't mean we all don't care. And I'm sorry to hear about your loss.Sorry to butt in but you should really consider refraining from smoking. The whole point of ramadan isnt just to stop doing something for 30 days and then begin your old habits again when its over. It makes no difference if you are doing it on Eid or after Eid, because your intention is want to go back to your old ways. I am sure it is addictive, much like the things we supposed to refrain from are addictive such as checking out women, premarital sex, etc.
One of the main reasons I never smoked is partly due to my uncle suffering from cancer at a young age and passing away at the age of 29. Reflecting upon it now, he wouldve been in his early 40s, and when I see my mates light up a fag, I actually have to tell them not to smoke in front of me because it gives me such a negative feeling, so much so that reminder to them has started to make them stop smoking too. It had taken them a year but they quit.
That few minutes you have smoking isnt worth the long term effect. Last thing you want is going to a doctor and finding out you have cancer or something because you smoked, because itll be a whole case of "damn wish i didnt do it" etc.
At the end of the day im only a forumer and have no right to judge how you live your life or what you should be doing, but you should really do everything possible to refrain yourself, even if it means cutting back weekly till the point you stop. At the end of the day, you will be judged accordingly by God, and your excuse wouldnt be sufficient in saying "oh it was addictive". God made the bad things addictive so God can test our commitment towards him.
Just my 2 cents
However, after having read your post in full I have to say it sounds like you're talking about tobacco and cigarettes. I wasn't talking about smoking that.
i guess i'm a really stupid man, coz i'm gonna do it. god knows it's just a part of who i am. i decided i'll stay sober on eid though and i'll do it the next day.Dont do it. Weed is really stupid man.
