Is Watching Dramas and Cartoons Allowed in Islam?
Question
Assalamualaikum what is the ruling of islam on watching dramas cartoons?
Islamic Ruling & Answer
VerifiedWalekumussalam,
According to Islam, watching dramas and cartoons is not permissible.
This is because they usually contain:
Free mixing between non-mahram men and women and immodesty
Music
Lies, immoral scenes, and un-Islamic ideas
Wasting time and becoming careless about religion
All of these things are not allowed in Shariah.
Therefore, a Muslim should completely avoid such things and protect their faith, eyes, and time. It is not right to risk the Hereafter for worldly entertainment.
