I am not trying to find a religion. I am not religious at all. Mainly I am curious about the Sunni perspective on it.

They didn't have cigaretts in the days of the Prophet. They had betel nut though which chemicals with a similar effect to nicoteen. The prophet didn't say anthing bad about that so most Muslims say yes it's ok.
Most muslims I know smoke like chimneys.

No they are not allowed. There has been scholarly debates and rulings on this, using the quran to support this ruling. A lot of people chose not to follow this ruling though.

God cares about what you do to his body. your body is his. I'm not muslim.
If you're trying to find a religion to fit you, then go make up your own.
If you're looking for truth, then this isnt how to find it.

i don't know- i've never seen them smoke. rediculous if you ask me. we're our own persons, but oh well, i'm trying NOT to add my opinion. i've never seen one smoke and we have many, many of them here in the US now. i hear more of that language than ANYTHING else! i've seen so many of them but never one with a cig hanging out of their mouths. go to google or ask jeeves!
