You can't. They have to want to do it.

If they actually want to quit, you can help!
Don't smoke around them.
Carry gum in case they have a craving.
Don't let them smoke around you.
Suggest activities where there will not be much smoking. IE. Go to a party at your local club, rather than someone's house.
Make sure they know you support their decision, and offer to be an on-call friend in case they need someone to talk them out of having a smoke. Believe it or not, it is a big help.
Also, try not to talk about smoking or quitting smoking around them. Just the reminder of a cigarette can bring on a craving.
I hope this helps you out, I'm sure I could think of more given time. Just remember, you are helping just by being a friend and supporting their decision. If they fail, it is not your fault. Also, if they fail, don't judge them. It will make it harder for them to try again. Just because they fall off of the wagon, doesn't mean that they won't accept the arm of a friend to help them climb back on.

Do not lecture to them by saying how this or how that. The person already knows this.
Put up with there snapping at you and the irritability without saying one word to them.
Best thing to do when someone is quitting smoking is keep your mouth shut!! Worst thing about non smokers or those who had quit is they think they are so much better then the one smoking. What works for one to stop doesn't work for another. Do not be one of these kinds of people.

If they seriously want to quit, I simply don't allow them to smoke around me. The rest is up to them.
