A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: A hookah, also known as a waterpipe, narghile, arghila, qalyān, or shisha (which refers specifically to egyptian hookahs) is a single- or multi-stemmed instrument for vaporizing and smoking flavored tobacco called shisha in which the vapor or smoke is passed through a water basin before inhalation. How bad it is depends upon what you are smoking.
