Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Watching religious programs is a righteous deed for which one is rewarded if they intend good by it. And whoever dies upon an act of obedience will be resurrected upon it, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Every servant will be resurrected upon what he died upon." Thus, dying while watching an Islamic program is a sign of a good ending.
