Is watching a video clip that contains mockery of Allah's verses without closing it considered an approval of the mockery, as stated in the two noble verses: "that when you hear the verses of Allah disbelieved in and mocked at, then do not sit with them until they enter into another conversation; indeed, you would then be like them" and "And when you see those who engage in [blasphemous] discourse concerning Our verses, then turn away from them until they engage in another conversation"?

Watching clips that mock the hijab or Islamic rulings is not permissible. It is obligatory to denounce them and stay away from them, except for someone who intends to refute their authors and debunk their claims. Merely hearing or watching mockery is a sin, but it does not necessitate the disbelief of the listener or viewer; rather, it is similar to disobeying Allah's command. Therefore, whoever watched this clip without a legitimate religious justification must repent to Allah and not return to such acts, and her dislike for it necessitates abandoning it.
