(9) And Al-Ajuri, may God be pleased with them all. (2) The speaker, from here, did not consider their words about God their Creator, so how about us, if what was said was said? Then, after the year one thousand and the beginning of the eleventh century, people began to use (1) shurfa and others for smoking tobacco. As for the origin, it is said that the first to use it was a man from the scholars in Yemen in the second century (2) (3) Sheikh Al-Ajuri. The scholars agreed on the permissibility of its use for people of phlegmatic temperament, unlike those of bilious temperament, for whom it is [not permissible]. As for the origin, they differed. Sheikh Al-Islam Al-Abhari (2) permitted it, and my master Sayyid Ibrahim Al-Qani (may God sanctify his secret) (author of Jawharat Al-Tawhid) prohibited it. In the land of the sinful Shafi'i (5), it was prohibited. And Sharif Abd Al-Wahhab, the man of Um Sunbul, permitted it. He came to Sheikh [Adris] who was staying in Rufaa' (5). The Sheikh said to him, "Strange! Sheikh Adris said it is prohibited to smoke tobacco." He denied that and said, "Is it from his own head or from his book?" Then Sheikh Adris came to the Sheikh and said to him, "Sharif Abd Al-Wahhab has come and permitted the use of tobacco." As for what he [the Sharif] confirmed, he said, "From his own head or from his book." Sheikh Adris said to him, "The Sultan of Istanbul has prohibited it (7), Sultan Mustafa. And the school of thought of Malik, may God be pleased with him (7), is that obedience to the Sultan is obligatory in matters where there is a religious text. And he informed him of matters for which there was no text from the Lawgiver, and in which the opinion of Muslims was acted upon." He said to him, "Inform me about Al-Qadi Dushun." He said to him, "Tobacco is forbidden. Speak, O God." And it was narrated by Husunah that Al-Qadi Dushun was [said to have died] prohibiting it. Now, if he is asked in his grave, he says, "Abd Al-Wahhab drank it." When he was informed about Al-Qadi Dushun, he sent (8) Sheikh Adris to Sheikh Dafa' Allah Al-Arqi regarding the issue of tobacco. in the grave. He said to him, "Tobacco is forbidden. Speak to the deceased, no religious ruling results from it." And the story is famous, and God knows best. (Q) This is merely a chapter on the miracles of the saints. Then Sheikh I said, "Glory be to God!" It is prohibited, and Sheikh [Adris] testifies to that. Taylanah, when Abu Aqrab was born, when he traveled with Al-Aqiq, the son of Abu Halimah, and Al-Faqih Ali, the son of Naqilah, when she was obligated to perform Hajj. When he entered Egypt, he asked about Sheikh Adris. The people told him that the Sheikh does not make it easy for you to meet him due to his teaching, and the sessions, and the gatherings, and the visits, except on Fridays when he enters the mosque. So he approached him on Friday at the mosque and handed him the letter. He read it. When he reached the saying, "I heard from the Messenger of God, peace be upon him, he said: Tobacco is forbidden," he said to him, "O my master, your Sheikh is a companion [of the Prophet]." And the letter was read to him. He said, "Tell me secretly, if there is the blessing of God in it, and the truth is seen in it quickly." On the second Friday, Sheikh Ibrahim Al-Qani (9) stood up. (M - 2 - Tabaqat) Al-Qadi Dushun to Sheikh Dafa' Allah Al-Arqi regarding the issue of tobacco, and here is from the saying that speaking is a miracle for the deceased. As for what he knows (9), stop at the miracles of the saints.
