Originating from India, Hookah has spread to various Arab countries and other places in the world. Today, the use of hookah is so popular that its users have developed rules regarding how it should be used. The tobacco that is used for hookah is usually very dark in color and it imported to other places in the world from Iran. Before it is ready for use, the hookah tobacco is washed ritually several times in trying to increase the quality and dampen its strength. Once ready for use, users are only allowed to use oak charcoal to burn it up. There are users that hold this tobacco in high esteem that to them it is an insult to find the tobacco lit when not being smoked.

Usually, the tobacco used is natural and pure although different natural ingredients are added to it to offer different types of hookah with different flavors when smoking. There are studies showing that one hookah session lasting for about 40 minutes exposes a user to lesser carbon monoxide and tar as compared to smoking a full packet of cigarettes. There are even some tobacco brands claiming to contain up to 0.00% tar. However, this can be taken as a misconception as usual tar results from plant combustion. However, considering that hookah tobacco in reality is roasted and not directly burned, the temperatures and density can possibly a safer smoke compared to cigar smoking as such involves directly burning the tobacco. The tobacco free flavored hookah are a little safer as such reduce the effects that result from plant combustion.
