What is the ruling on watching clips from films and series that show scenes of the hero rescuing the heroine, while avoiding anything that violates morals?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It has been previously clarified that acting is permissible. However, the default ruling for movies and TV series is prohibition due to their lack of adherence to Sharia guidelines and the presence of objectionable and forbidden elements within them. Therefore, it is not permissible to watch them, except for what fully adheres to Sharia guidelines. One should instead occupy oneself with what is beneficial in matters of religion and worldly life.
