Does smoking break wudu?

Question

Do cigarettes break wudu?

Islamic Ruling & Answer

Verified

Smoking a cigarette does not break wudu (ablution). However, since it causes a bad smell in the mouth, and bad odors are disliked by the angels, it is better  before reciting the Qurโ€™an or performing prayer with that wudu  to renew the wudu, or at least rinse the mouth thoroughly and clean it properly.
