Is it permissible to subscribe to platforms that offer good content alongside content that is bad from the perspective of creed or morals, if one is careful to only follow the good? And is it permissible to buy comic books given the prohibition of drawing animate beings? And is it permissible to buy content that is originally sound and avoid the harms within it?
It is not forbidden to subscribe to platforms free from religious prohibitions, provided that one limits oneself to what is permissible. However, it is advisable not to subscribe to them, as they may lead to laxity, heedlessness, and a slide from the permissible to the disliked, and then to the forbidden. This is also because those who run them are foreigners who do not observe Islamic law. As for animated stories, drawing animate beings (those with a soul) is problematic, and the matter becomes more severe if they contain religious prohibitions in the scenes, sounds, or words. Therefore, it is advisable to seek other means to fill one's free time and utilize it beneficially.
