Is it permissible to watch television (series and movies) while eating, based on the undesirability of doing so because Allah has provided you with this food?

The ruling on watching television varies depending on what is being broadcast. If it is free from forbidden content and does not lead to a prohibited act, then there is no harm. Otherwise, it is forbidden. Watching television while eating does not differ from watching it at any other time, and consuming food has no impact on the ruling of watching. The statement that it is not recommended to watch television while eating because Allah has provided you with the food is incorrect and has no basis. Therefore, watching permissible programs at that time is not blameworthy.
