Is it permissible to watch the series "Umar ibn al-Khattab," which will be shown on MBC during Ramadan, even with the intention of learning about the lives of the Companions?

Many scholars have issued fatwas prohibiting the portrayal of senior Companions, such as the Rightly Guided Caliphs and the Mothers of the Believers. Therefore, one must avoid TV series that depict them. The Sirah (Prophet's biography) can be learned from other sources.
