Liputan6.com, Banjarnegara: Former Chairman of Muhammadiyah leader Amien Rais Center surprised the fatwa issued unlawful smoking Muhammadiyah. "I'm not a religious expert, but with increased Mubah be haram fatwa against smoking, I was surprised. If makruh okay," said Amien in Banjarnegara, Central Java, Saturday (13 / 3).

Amien said the God in the Koran ordered Muslims not to justify the unlawful and prohibited the lawful. In view of the Koran, he said, there is no verse which prohibits people smoking. "It's only the benefits and harm analysis by some scholars, because of his belief that smoking may carry diseases, so that forbids smoking," he said.

In fact, according to him, unheard of scholars in other countries forbid smoking. Previously the Legal Affairs Committee and Muhammadiyah Tajdid smoking haram fatwa. Fatwa unlawful smoking from Muhammadiyah is a revision of the previous fatwa declaring smoking Mubah. (JUM / Ant)
