Bahrain: Stubbing it Out!  · Global Voices
Amira Al Hussaini

With the Muslim Holy month of Ramadan (month of fasting) fast approaching, Bahraini blogger Tawfeeq Al Rayash is hitting two birds with one stone. He is fasting for three months and kicking off smoking after a wake up call from his daughter.
The blogger announces:
Many pious Muslims fast for three months, including Ramadan, as an extra form of worship.
Al Rayash also elaborates on his decision to stub it out by saying:
فلاتنسوني من الدعاء
I have decided to give up smoking out of concern that this habit gets transferred to the next generation.
Don't forget me in your prayers.
