Depends what you have been smoking. The half-life of nicotine in the body is 2 hours, meaning that every 2 hours the level of nicotine decreases by half. After about 2 days it is unlikely that nicotine would be detectable.

Marijuana is detectable in the blood for anything up to 2 months - but this is due to a chemical in the plant which has little effect on the high (i.e. you could be pumped full of it and you would not be stoned) being absorbed by the body fat and being slowly released into the bloodstream.

If this is for a life insurance or health package, I believe they use quantification of saliva based cotinene (a tobacco smoke metabolite) This has a half life of 24 hours so give it a week and chemically smoking will not show up without expensive testing. There are of course other ways your doctor will be able to tell that you smoke however.

Not at all. Hookah smoking is not safer than cigarette smoking. The tobacco is no less toxic in a hookah pipe, and the water in the hookah does not filter out the toxic ingredients in the tobacco smoke. Hookah smokers may actually inhale more tobacco smoke than cigarette smokers do because of the large volume of smoke they inhale in one smoking session, which can last as long as 60 minutes.
