What is the ruling on playing an electronic game that contains a gambling option and images of naked women, if gambling is avoided and the viewing of prohibited images is avoided?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no prohibition in playing this game if the impermissible elements are avoided, such as looking at something unlawful or playing a simulation of gambling. However, refraining from playing the game entirely, as a precaution and to distance oneself from doubt, is better and safer.
