There was a burst of activity when the sound of the alarm propelled the fire department into action.
Answer:
Ahmed: Hey, it is a beautiful evening, don't you think?
Karan: Yes, it is. My friend, I noticed an increased purchase of sheep and goats in the community. Do you know anything about that?
Ahmed: Ah, yes Karan. The Muslim faithful are preparing for the Eid-Ul-Adha festival which is also known as the Qurban festival.
Karan: Aha! I thought as much. What is the festival about, anyway?
Ahmed: Well, it is all about giving to Allah the best of your livestock that has no defects at all. Not even a cross-eyed sheep is considered good enough.
Karan: Oh, now I understand the increased activity. Have you gotten yours yet?
Ahmed: Yes. I have been grooming my offering to Allah for two months and she is in pristine condition.
Karan: Wow, such dedication, Ahmed.
Ahmed: Yes, my friend. Allah has been good, this is the least way we can show our thanks.
Karan: Alright. I'll be heading home now. My mom would be waiting for me/
Ahmed: Bye-bye.
The answer to the questions is: Yes, they do protect people. This is the evidence:
Several studies have found a significant decline in cotinine which is an alkaloid found in tobacco. The decrease was found in both hospitality workers and the general public. For example, since the prohibition of smoking in New York state in 2003 in all indoor areas of workplaces, cotinine in nonsmoking adults decreased by 47.4%. Therefore, we can state that after implementing the law the harm done by secondhand smoke has been dramatically reduced. Studies like this have also been conducted in places like Ireland an England.
