There are hookah bars, where hookah and coffee is served.

Restaurants and bars where young people sing and dance, smoke hookah, and sip coffee are growing more prevalent in Kabul.

For example in Merida, in the city where I was born, we have the Alcazaba Arabe, an Arabic fortification, Parejo says.

I suspect that the tolerance of the English towards shisha stems from their consideration that it is a cultural affair and part of the customs of immigrants and visitors.

Even the shisha has its permanent presence in coffee shops there, despite the fact that smoking is banned almost everywhere there and all those who break this ban are subjected to punishment.
