Can use iPad charger to charge iPhone 5? Will it harm the iPhone?

If its an iPad 4 or an iPad Mini, they use the same lightning connector and cables as the iPhone 5
if its the older 30-pin connector, you can get an adaptor to allow it to work

The new charger will be the way all of them are going forward, smaller, thinner, and better.
