Q: My husband and I are disagreeing on something. So basically my husband has friends that are non-Muslim which I dont have a problem with. However my problem is that my husband and them pass their cigarettes around. In my opinion, I say it's wrong as they are non-Muslims and they drink and so on, so their saliva should not touch my husband's mouth. However, my husband feels that I am being unrealistic and it's not their saliva that's touching the cigarettes, it's only their lips. I still feel that's not right. Please advise what is the correct way for this.
