What is the fatwa of Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen, may Allah have mercy on him, regarding the ruling on introducing satellite dishes into the home?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A satellite dish is a device that receives foreign, infidel channels broadcasting lewd films and programs that promote Christianization. It is not permissible to own it, promote it, or buy and sell it, because it is a form of cooperation in sin and aggression, which is forbidden by His (Allah's) saying: "And do not cooperate in sin and aggression."
