The question

هل يجوز وصف الأحداث الرومانسية وشكل أبطال الرواية (ذكرًا وأنثى) من حيث لون الشعر والعينين، وما هو الوصف الجائز وغير الجائز؟ وهل يجوز كتابة وقراءة روايات عن واقع بلاد الكفر لا تحرّم تصرفاتهم؟

The answer

It is permissible to write fictional novels as long as they do not contain corruption. What is legislated from them is that which has a righteous impact on readers, and that which results in benefit and good. What aims to cause corruption, spread illicit love, and incite indecency is not permissible. As for imaginary detective novels set in Western countries, it is not permissible to describe their lives and culture in a way that attracts the reader; rather, it should be denounced. The basic rule is to look at the fruits of the novels and what results from them, whether good or evil, benefit or harm. If the benefits and harms are equal, or if the matter is unclear, it is better to avoid them.
