The question

What is the ruling on the game "Free Fire" and the disbelief that results from playing it, due to its inclusion of images of animate beings and images that violate Islamic law, in addition to naming some of its characters "Adam and Eve," which may be considered mockery of the Prophet of Allah, Adam (peace be upon him), and our mother Eve?

The answer

Among the prohibitions of electronic games is the presence of elements of disbelief (kufr) within them, such as ridiculing the prophets. Playing these games, even if it is a sin, does not entail the disbelief of the player if he does not approve of those elements of disbelief. As for the mere presence of images of living beings (dhawat al-arwah), it does not make the game forbidden, unless they are naked and arouse desires.
