English term or phrase: smoking rocks
What is going on with "smoking rocks" / Shisha with steam rocks? Insufficiently researched. Instead of tobacco, steam rocks are soaked in molasses and glycerin featuring a strong aroma, and are placed in the Shisha. Coal is still used as a heating tool. Current status: contains carcinogens, through the steam media as well as the coal. Health hazards are difficult to estimate. Frequently contains also nicotine and is addictive.

Comment: Respected friends, this is the paragraph of a prospective mobile app designed to prevent the adolescents from smoking.

शीश-पत्थरों का धूम्रपान / [शीश] पत्थरों का धूम्रपान / शीश-पत्थर-नशा / शीश-पत्थरों का नशा


Explanation:
Googling "Shisha with steam rocks" gives the following links:

https://www.insidescience.org/news/steam-stones-safer-hookah...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wG7piMmgU0

The following link shows the sale of this product on Alibaba with Hindi translation:

https://hindi.alibaba.com/product-detail/shisha-steam-stones...

I have translated SMOKING as धूम्रपान, ROCKS as शीश-पत्थर (from above links)

शीश-पत्थर-नशा and शीश-पत्थरों का नशा are the other options that come from the below link which uses धूम्रपान and नशा for SMOKING:

http://www.nirogikaya.com/2013/11/how-to-quit-smoking-in-hin...

Googling शीश पत्थरों का धूम्रपान gives the following result:

https://hindi.alibaba.com/product-detail/shisha_-steam_-ston...

Whereas, शीश-पत्थरों का नशा does not throw any results.

So best options would be:
1. शीश-पत्थरों का धूम्रपान
2. शीश पत्थरों का धूम्रपान
3. शीश-पत्थर-धूम्रपान

शीश धूम्र पत्थर भी हो सकता है। हुक्का शब्द का उपयोग ठीक नहीं होगा क्योंकि हुक्के में तंबाकू का भी उपयोग होता है।
