Default Honda Civic 2000

May car has no start. Telltale lights on the instrument panel and headlights do not dim when I turn the key.
If it is battery, the lights go dim, so I doubt?
Any reason please?

Does it crank? Get the battery tested.

Checked it. It is fully charged but its conditions not good. I just put some water in the battery.

When I changed the battery, it was starting with shaking and after several starts, it died.
Now when I try to turn it on, there is a smell of gas inside. No clue what's going on.

There's something you're not telling us bruh. If it starts when you jump it from another car like you stated, I can't imagine it would be anything other than the battery. But now you say you changed the battery and and it starts but is shaking then dies.

Perhaps weak spark, start here please.
