She has received a proposal from a young man who smokes – should she agree to marry him?
Question

                A man proposed to me. When we asked about him and found out that he smokes. Should a man be refused due to such a vice?.
Praise be to Allah.
    Smoking is haraam because of evidence which we have explained 
    previously in the answer to question no.
    9083. 

    The one who persists in smoking is no longer regarded as 
    being of good character, and the basic principle is that a woman should 
    choose a husband who is righteous and of good character, who does not commit 
    major sins or persist in minor sins, and who is not known as an evildoer. 
    But if she is getting older and fears that no one will propose to her in the 
    near future, and this suitor is religiously committed and of good character 
    in other ways, such as if he prays regularly and is kind and has a good 
    attitude, and he keeps away from evil and immoral things, after enquiring 
    closely about him, then she may pray istikhaarah and ask Allaah for 
    guidance, and agree to marry him, but she should advise him after that and 
    encourage him to give up smoking. 

    But if she still has some time and is likely to have the 
    opportunity to marry someone else who is righteous, then she should not 
    accept the suitor who smokes, because of what we have stated above that he 
    is persisting in sin, and because smoking is harmful to him and others, and 
    it will also harm the wife and children. A woman may not be able to stand 
    being intimate when there is the foul stench of smoke, and staying with the 
    husband may cause her distress and hardship. May Allaah help us all to do 
    that which He loves and which pleases Him. 
And Allaah knows best.
