Jose-I see all these mentions of the issur for smoking. Can anyone refer a written psak or teshuva to that effect? I would like to read what is written there.
R’ Moshe Zt”l whose teshuva all you people quote that it is mutter to smoke says clearly it’s ossur to start.
As a matter of clarification, venishmartem meod lenofshoseichem is an asay. Vlo sosuru achrei levavichem is a lo sasay
When I learnt in Yeshiva, I was always exposed to second-hand smoke. I don’t know of one smoker who will not smoke in the presence of others. R’ Moshe only Matters smoking for oneself, he doesn’t Matter second-hand smoke. For a person to expose others to second-hand smoke, as far as I’m concerened this is Rehzicha, a lot worse than “Vlo sosuru …”!
