The
conditions for watching and playing football (soccer)
*Please appropriately reference
this fatwa to: www.fatwa-online.com, thankyou!*
Question:
Is it permissible for a person, who performs/carrys out his
obligations at their respective times, to watch and play football
in his spare time?
Response:
There is no harm in this, so long as the football does not
distract you from any of your obligations, and that you cover
your 'awrah,
and that no prayers are missed with the Muslims (in congregation)
in the masaajid,
and that it is not a cause for you to leave any of your obligations.
So I hope there is no problem (with this), inshaa.-Allaah.
And Allaah knows best.
