Human Rights are internationally defined as "basic rights and freedoms to which all humans are entitled". The purpose of these rights is generally accepted as guarding the conditions and protections that are necessary to ensure a minimal standard of justice, tolerance and human dignity.
The de facto standard of human rights in modern society is set out in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Amongst these generally accepted and recognised rights, smoking is mentioned neither directly nor directly. The intent of the human rights movement is not libertarian in nature, and does not cover minor legislation such as the control of substances that are not necessary to human existence or dignity.
There are many substances and activities that are banned around the world, including many controlled drugs. It has never been held that such legislation infringes human rights. In fact, it is recognised that any state may pass legislation to protect the well-being of their society in whatever ways it deems necessary, provided it does not impede on individual's basic rights to liberty, justice and freedom from oppression.
It could be argued that attempting to use the Declaration of Human Rights as 'blanket' legislation to argue any petty cause undermines and trivialises the importance of human rights.

Is the law banning religious symbols against human rights?
The legality of laws banning religious symbols can vary depending on the context and the specific human rights implications involved. In some cases, such laws may be seen as infringing on the right to freedom of religion and expression, protected under international human rights conventions. It is important for such laws to be carefully reviewed to ensure they do not unduly discriminate against individuals based on their religion.
Why do some people think that smoking is one of their human rights?
Smoking is a human right just like a person has a right to hang glide or fish or drink alcohol. Your question should be "do human rights end when a persons activities become hazardous to ones health?" Just because smoking is bad for someones health it is not anyone else's place to tell them they aren't allowed to do it. Provided they are of age.
