Question
televisor male in and I watch the news or any program with no other reason. is it Haram to
watch male in t.v with no(shahwa)
Praise be to Allah.
The Muslim has to protect his senses and faculties from
everything that is of no benefit to him, let alone whatever is haraam. Allaah says
(interpretation of the meaning):
“Verily, the hearing, and the sight, and the heart, of each of
those you will be questioned (by Allaah).” [al-Israa’ 17:36]
The Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“Looking is one of the arrows of Shaytaan.” Television is full of men and women
who are promiscuous and immoral, and usually is not free from music and all other kinds of
haraam things, so in general it is not good to look at it. May Allaah help us.
As regards women looking at what normally appears of men for a specific
reason and without any kind of desire, this is permissible as a number of scholars have
said. But looking at the TV does not come under this heading, because there is no need for
it, so women should turn away from everything in which there is no benefit, and keep
themselves busy with things that will bring good consequences. And Allaah is the source of
strength.
