Islam is a religion that emphasizes the importance of obedience to Allah, the Almighty, and living a life that is in accordance with His teachings. Fasting is one of the pillars of Islam, which is observed by Muslims around the world during the month of Ramadan. During this month, Muslims abstain from food, drink, and other physical needs from dawn until sunset.
However, fasting is not only about refraining from food and drink. It is also about controlling one’s desires and behavior and being mindful of one’s actions. Muslims are required to fear Allah with regard to what they do and what they refrain from doing at all times, not just during the month of Ramadan.
One of the things that Muslims need to be cautious about is watching indecent movies or TV shows that go against the laws of Allah. This includes images of naked or semi-naked people, evil words, songs, and musical instruments, as well as misleading advertisements. Muslims should avoid these things and focus on activities that promote purity, righteousness, and good deeds.
In Islam, the concept of modesty and chastity is highly valued, and Muslims are encouraged to protect their eyes, ears, and hearts from anything that is haram or prohibited by Allah. It is through these acts of self-control and obedience to Allah that Muslims can attain a higher level of spiritual purity and righteousness.
REFERENCE FROM QURANIC VERSES ON ARE ALLOWED TO WATCH TV DURING RAMADAN
Islam is a religion that teaches its followers to live a life of righteousness and virtue. Muslims are required to follow the teachings of Allah and the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in every aspect of their lives. Fasting is an important pillar of Islam, which involves not only abstaining from food and drink but also being mindful of one’s actions and behavior.
One of the things that Muslims should be aware of is playing cards, which involves witnessing and doing evil. Playing cards can also lead to hard-heartedness, sickness in the heart, and a lack of respect for Allah’s laws. It can make Muslims find what Allah has made obligatory burdensome, such as praying in congregation and other obligatory duties, and can lead to falling into many haram things.
Allah has warned Muslims against purchasing idle talks such as music and singing, which can mislead people from the path of Allah without knowledge and take the path of Allah by way of mockery. Such people will face humiliating torment in the Hell-fire.
Therefore, Muslims should be cautious of their actions and avoid engaging in activities that can lead them away from the path of Allah. They should strive to follow the teachings of Islam and focus on activities that promote purity, righteousness, and good deeds. By doing so, they can attain a higher level of spiritual purity and righteousness, and earn the pleasure of Allah.
7. And when Our Verses (of the Qur’an) are recited to such a one, he turns away in pride, as if he heard them not — as if there were deafness in his ear. So announce to him a painful torment”
[Luqmaan 31:6-7]And Allaah says in Soorat al-Furqaan, describing the slaves of the Most Merciful (interpretation of the meaning):
“And those who do not bear witness to falsehood, and if they pass by some evil play or evil talk, they pass by it with dignity”
[al-Furqaan 25:72].Explanation
Falsehood includes all kinds of evil: Muslims are required to be truthful in their words and actions, and to refrain from any form of falsehood or deception. Falsehood includes all kinds of evil, such as adultery, silk, alcohol, and music, which some people regard as permissible. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) warned against such sins, as they can lead people away from the path of Allah and detract from the reward of fasting.
Forbidden means: Allah has forbidden Muslims to engage in any activities that may lead them toward sin or evil. This includes watching indecent movies, TV shows, or any form of media that involves evil or temptation. Such activities can cause Muslims to become careless and not denounce evil, which can detract from the reward of fasting.
Detracting from the reward of fasting: Sins such as falsehood, adultery, silk, alcohol, and music can detract from the reward of fasting, and in some cases, may even erase it altogether. Muslims are required to be mindful of their actions and strive to avoid any activities that can lead them toward sin or temptation.
IS IT HARAM TO WATCH TV DURING RAMADAN
The Quran emphasizes the importance of avoiding all forms of evil and promoting righteousness. It states in Surah Al-A’raf, verse 157, “Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered prophet, whom they find written in what they have of the Torah and the Gospel, who enjoins upon them what is right and forbids them what is wrong and makes lawful for them the good things and prohibits for them the evil and relieves them of their burden and the shackles which were upon them. So they who have believed in him honored him, supported him, and followed the light which was sent down with him – it is those who will be successful.”
Based on this, it is important for Muslims to be mindful of what they watch in movies and other forms of media. They should avoid any scenes or content that are considered haram or forbidden in Islam. This includes nudity, sexual content, violence, and anything else that goes against the teachings of Islam.
It is also important to note that some Islamic scholars have differing opinions on the matter of watching movies. Some consider it permissible as long as it does not contain haram content, while others advise against it altogether.
Muslims should be mindful of what they watch in movies and other forms of media. They should avoid any content that is considered haram and strive to promote righteousness and avoid evil. As stated in the Quran, following the teachings of the Prophet and promoting what is right while avoiding what is wrong is the path to success.
Conclusion
Conclusion: Fasting is a time for Muslims to reflect on their actions, seek forgiveness for their sins, and strive to become better individuals. It is a time to strengthen one’s relationship with Allah and to focus on activities that promote purity, righteousness, and good deeds. Muslims should be mindful of the sins that can detract from the reward of fasting and strive to avoid them at all times. By doing so, they can attain a higher level of spiritual purity and righteousness, and earn the pleasure of Allah.
