What is the ruling on playing, selling, and trading entertainment devices like "PlayStation" that contain music or images of women, given that the games themselves are not inherently corrupt?
Electronic games include doctrinal and behavioral corruptions, such as music and distracting players from their duties. If the forbidden aspects outweigh the permissible ones, then selling them is not allowed. The ruling on using them varies depending on their content. Some contain extreme violence,裸 pictures, or gambling. Some involve glorifying the cross, sexual scenes, or insulting Islam. If these matters, or some of them, are found, then playing them is impermissible. If they are free from all of these, then it is permissible. Parents must examine the games before allowing their children to play them.
