Hookah and its Origins
Israel
The Israeli the term for hookah is nargila. Nargila-smoking is prevalent among
indigenous Palestinians and Middle-Eastern Jewish immigrants. Nargilas are
becoming increasingly popular in Israel, particularly among tourists. Shops
selling paraphernalia can be found on most streets and markets.
India
The concept of hookah originated In India, once the province of the wealthy, it
was tremendously popular especially during Mughal rule. The hookah has since
become less popular; however, it is once again garnering the attention of the
masses, and cafés and restaurants that offer it as a consumable are popular. The
use of hookahs from ancient times in India was not only a custom, but a matter
of prestige. Rich and landed classes would smoke hookahs. Tobacco is smoked in
hookahs in many villages as per traditional customs. Smoking a tobacco-molasses
shisha is now becoming popular amongst the youth in India. There are several
chain clubs, bars and coffee shops in India offering a wider variety of
mu‘assels, including non-tobacco versions. Koyilandy, a small fishing town on
the west coast of India, once made and exported hookahs extensively. These are
known as Malabar Hookhas or Koyilandy Hookahs. Today these intricate hookahs are
difficult to find outside of Koyilandy and not much easier to find in Koyilandy
itself.
Philippines
In the Philippines, the Hookah or Shisha was particularly used within the
minority Arab Filipino communities and Indian Filipino, although particularly
among indigenous Muslim Filipinos, a historical following of social and cultural
trends set in the Middle East led to the Hookah being a rare albeit prestige
social-habit of noblemen in important trade cities such as Cotabato or Jolo.
Hookah was virtually unknown by Christian Filipinos before the latter 20th
century, yet the popularity among contemporary younger Christians is now vastly
growing. In the capital's most cosmopolitan city, Makati; various high-end bars
and clubs offer hookahs to patrons.
South Africa
In South Africa, hookah, colloquially known as a hubbly bubbly or an okka pipe,
is popular amongst the Cape Malay and Indian populations, wherein it is smoked
as a social pastime. However, hookah is seeing increasing popularity with white
South Africans, especially the youth. Bars that additionally provide hookahs are
becoming more prominent, although smoking is normally done at home or in public
spaces such as beaches and picnic sites. In South Africa, the terminology of the
various hookah components also differ from other countries. The clay "head/bowl"
is known as a "clay pot". The hoses are called "pipes" and the air release valve
is known, strangely, as a "clutch". Some scientists point to the dagga pipe as
an African origin of hookah.
