"Why is watching movies and dramas not okay?
1. The Lord of all the Worlds asks women to veil and shield their beauty from na mehram men, so how can you even justify making films in the first place.
2. The Creator of the Heavens and the Earth asks believing men and women to lower their gaze and guard their modesty. The first accidental glance at a member of the opposite gender (who is not your mahram) is forgiven, the next you are going to be held accountable for. Can you then watch a movie blindfolded?
3. In Surah Luqman, we are warned thus: " But there are among men who purchase IDLE TALES ( songs, movies, dramas) to mislead from the Path of Allah without knowledge and throw ridicule on it; for such will be a humiliating penalty. When Our Signs are rehearsed to such a one, he turns away in arrogance as if he heard them not, as if there were deafness in both his ears; give him glad tidings of a grievous punishment."
4. The Designer of the 7 Heavens and all that is between them describes His special slaves as " those who, if they happen to PASS by futility, they pass by it with honorable (avoidance) . Surah Furqan.
5. The Most Gracious declares believers who will be ultimately successful as those "who avoids laghw". Laghw is any vain, futile, time killing activity that has no benefit in this world or the next.
6. The Prophet (pbuh) said that there are two blessings in which most people incur loss, health and free time. He (saw) also foretold that a believer will not be able to MOVE from his place before he has answered 5 questions: How did he spend his life? how did he spend his youth in particular? From which source did he earn his livelihood? Where did he spend it? and to what extent did he PRACTISE what he knew?
7. The One who is going to judge has deemed ALL of mankind to be in grave loss except those who do all of the following simultaneously without failing any one of these duties: those who believe , and do righteous deeds, and exhort each other to Truth and patience and constancy.
8. The blink of an eye and this life is gonna be over. How much is 1 hour (or 3 hours for a movie) of our life worth anyway?? If you ask people of intellect and understanding, they wouldn't watch a drama or film even if you paid them. We have soo much to learn of our Deen, the Quran and Hadith. How can we afford to gamble with our lives when the Most Stunning Reality awaits us...
