Ahmad could do dua to ask Allah to make it easier for him to quit smoking.

He could also start by changing his friends or his friends views on smoking and how to handle their addiction.

He could get rid of all cigar based morsels from his home, and make it a pure place.

يَا مُقَلِّبَ الْقُلُوبِ ثَبِّتْ قَلْبِى عَلَى دِينِكَ

“O, Turner of the hearts, turn my heart towards  Your deen.”

I would firstly advise him to quit hanging around people that will have a bad influence him and find new friends that remind him of islam and advise him to do good and forbid evil , i would then tell him about the harmful side effects of smoking on his health in the future

وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ ۖ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ الدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ ۖ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُوا لِي وَلْيُؤْمِنُوا بِي لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُونَ - 2:186

Firstly, i would explain to him the negative effects of smoking. Hopefully this would show him that if he continues on this path, he would not only damage his relationship with Allah but also this would effect his health in the long term as tobacco can be harmful to his lungs.

I would tell Ahmed to quit the habit as it is bad for the health. It causes life threatening diseases and is very dangerous. He could quit the habit by getting new friends who don't smoke and ask for help, if he stays in a house where he has no access to tobacco then he will eventually quit.

1. Ahmed should slowly start to reduce how often he smokes at first. Then it would be easier for him to completely stop after a while.

2.
Surah Baqarah "spend in the way of Allah"

1.  He could quit the habit of smoking and give it up for good by not buying anymore and staying away from people who do smoke so he does not get tempted. As his friend, I would advise him on the negative effects of smoking so that he understands the importance of him stopping.

2. The Prophet said "Do not harm yourself or harm others". For Ahmed, what he is doing is harming himself as smoking is harmful.

Q1 - I would advise Ahmed to quit smoking by educating him on the effects that smoking can have on the individual so that he is aware of his consequences.

Q2 - Ahmed should reconsider his actions by reading some hadeeths such as when Prophet Muhammad stated "Do not harm yourself nor harm others." which relates being peer pressured.

1. Firstly, i would explain to him the many negative effects of smoking, hopefully this would show him that if he continues on this path, how his life would look like, for him and possibly for his children. If that does not work i would recommend him to stay away from the friends he has.

1. As a friend, I would advise Ahmed to stop by giving him support through the struggle, so he knows that there are people around him that care for him and his well-being, but I would also inform him about the risks of smoking to let him convince himself not to continue and harm himself further.

1. I would tell him that he would survive unlike his friends and to stay away from that group of friends as friends would determine his character.
