Is riding a racing motorcycle permissible?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The basic principle is the permissibility of riding bicycles and other vehicles, unless it involves exposing oneself or others to excessive danger. If such danger is entailed, then it is prohibited, based on Allah's saying: "And do not kill yourselves. Indeed, Allah is ever Merciful to you."
